Absolutely brilliant responses to yesterday's question. I asked +flint dille if I should move from G+ to Facebook and he, as usual didn't have a good answer but he did ask +JoJo Stratton, who had a number of ideas as to where we should move our community. I suspect that in a while, for the short term, I'll move to the Book of Faces, but welcome any other format that Essex prefers as long as it functions more or less like G+.

Also, is is possible to archive this page and the Essex G+ page before it vanishes?

    You are moving to Facebook? Oh doctor... now that I was getting used to your mostly defragmented self. It was fun, though. I'll miss you but there are still some dark places in the world that won't dare to enter, not even because of you. That is where the line is drawn. I am truly sorry, but I can't follow you there.

    To repeat what I said in an earlier post:
    * lots of Essexians are and have been alienated by Facebook.
    * Reddit (or some sort of forum) seems to be favored as a platform for posting, archiving Intel and discussing it.
    * for "contacting" many have suggested telegram - both to you as well as to other sensitives and people of interest.

    +Edgar Allan Wright I suggest Reddit as the only feasible answer for posts that works in any similar fashion to G+.

    Why Reddit over Facebook?
    Simple -> Just like G+, Reddit does not require you to register to be able to partake of the content. The information would be freely available for all to process. You would have total control over the subreddit you create. For those who would like to engage in the discussion, they can register for use. The registration process is simple and painless and the users would be able to get up and contributing in minutes.

    I would say Reddit over Facebook... Or I would bug the NIA to do the responsible thing and create a forum for all discussion of XM related matters. After all why should Facebook own and monitor all xm related documents that are leaked by truth seekers when the NIA can own and monitor it themselves?

    I would ask that you consider a different option.. I am one of many agents that do not use my legal name in my Investigations and actively use FB for private life. Facebook does not allow multiple accounts or any accounts that do not include your legal name and is prone to abuse as it's reporting process is easy. One person can flag your name as incorrect and shut down your account. I have personally had it happen to me.... I do not use my legal name in ingress for a variety of reasons and if you moved to fb I would have to use an instable account that could be flagged and forced to shut down... I know I am not the only one that would have this issue as well...

    Adding to the groups coordinating efforts - G+ RPG Escape Rocket - this one focuses on RPG tabletop groups - which might be a little closer to Essex. Something to consider in the rush to archive the g+ posts - where exactly would they move to? We can debate moving to other platforms for future use, but what platform would be used for archiving the g+ posts (it is good to use Takeout and other methods - but what do you "do" with that data)?

As it appears that Misty is rising on the Essex Radar, a couple questions come to mind... Have we identified either the assassin or whoever hired the assassin to kill her at the Magic Castle AND, do we know who assassinated the Assassin.

I am not sure that any of this was ever resolved. I am hoping that I am wrong. I am curious about her 'demons'. It seems that historically magicians have been plagued by demons (I conclude this after a study of vintage magic posters). And what is the relationship between demons and exogenous entities?

Forgive me for so many questions.

    Hmm, I was thinking it was an old Las Vegas mob-like hitman that was looking to snuff out Misty on account of some old debts or something. My guess was that it was a Mind-Hacked 855 that took him out before he got the chance. An paid IOU from +A Detection Algorithm

    Regarding the questions, +Edgar Allan Wright, I do not think I have any
    kind of answer to give - personally, I have no knowledge of the facts you
    are referring to +Misty Hannah, if not what I managed to find out and read
    just too late about the facts.

    The more familiar for me the reference you make between mage and demons.
    But there is no way to stop once this road is gone: the grid of glyphs
    seems to derive its origins from sacred geometry, as already explained in
    more than an investigation on Essex, just as the Ingress' glyphs themselves
    incredibly remember the magic symbols built for circles of evocation.
    For all the european middle-ages, wizards who can recall existences
    and essences of other dimensions used and cataloged signs like those we use
    to operate on the portalnetwork.
    I do not want to find that even those mentioned in the many magical texts
    of our medieval age are their exogenous entities - perhaps, the same as we
    know as N'zeer, or Shapers.

    The hitman was most likely one of J.A Potts' members. Potts, if you will recall, had a grudge against Misty for escaping his clutches with the help of Calvin. He swore revenge on her. The Andy Nominus screenplay on this event is out there.


    But the hitman wasn't sent to the Castle by Potts that night.

    Those of +Misty Hannahs archetype are more tuned into the suggestions of exogenous entities. "The Green Flash" experience she had as a child is a prime example of this. I would argue that her sensitivity to XM goes both ways. Just as she is able to reach out and tune into the history of an object, entities are able to reach out to her mind and send her images due to the "open channel" state of her mind. "Demons" is not an entirely accurate word used, but it is a word used to describe these entities because they are unknown. The reality is they are exogenous in nature, whether Nzeer or Shapers or another yet to be revealed force.

It has occurred to me that it was nearly 5 years ago that Tycho appeared at Comic-Con and accosted +flint dille on the Buck Rogers panel. But there are some parts of his story that remain mysterious to me. As we all remember, he was led away from the San Diego Convention center in vans that looked somewhat similar to 1331 and to the best of my knowledge, has never been seen again.

But his work has emerged in the form of the graphic novel and, I believe other things. I do not know if he was the artist of the archetype cards. I vaguely remember hearing that he had escaped from the NIA, but that might not be true.

And, of course, there is the mystery of Tycho's true identity. Was the man we saw at Comic-Con the real Tycho? Was he 'a' Tycho? Was he an impostor?

What are we to make of Tycho as we near the fifth anniversary of his appearance and was some could argue was the public beginning of the Niantic Investigation?

    +Edgar Allan Wright, I think your second option is the correct one, he was a Tycho.

    I think that it's a title that's passed from artist to artist, and with it comes the ability to see the events of Remote Participation Events and place those into vibrant images that we've come to know.

    As +flint dille himself said that a Tycho was there at his Transgress event as well, and the description of that tycho did not match the tycho at the Comic-con.

    There's a reason hardly anyone noticed when Dagwood changed appearances in Bewitched. If people do notice is because they cared more about the actor than the character. So please just replace who you are going to replace and let's get pass this archetype exploration. And for gawds sake tie up a story line once in a while or blame it on the N'zeer ala Days of Our Lives style - they can be Stefano.

    Tycho, to me, seems to be a "sensitive" that seems to be able to either switch bodies, or be a part of some collective. Regardless, the concept of "Tycho" seems to be associated with someone of heightened creativity. Maybe there are different levels of sensitivity to XM. Some seem to be very attuned to XM, and others not so much. I think it might be possible that the concept of Tycho may be someone who is either attuned to XM, but doesn't quite understand.

    I think the answer even goes back to project Wydah. +Tycho C. revealed that NIA wanted him to join this project. It is clear that +Tycho C. Was under NIA radar well before Niantic. It is very strange that NIA let him be to speak freely in public. Maybe this was part of the plot to disguise Niantic project. Maybe Ken Owen is behind this. Its not clear if another Wydah member +Edgar Allan Wright is able to share more about Wydah project plans with +Tycho C. I more believe Ezekiel Calvin was the only one who knew. I think he holds the answer to who was +Tycho C. at Comic-Con and what is his current status.

    +Kosh TheRipper Yes. I am coming to the same conclusion that you did about Tycho. Tycho is a title. However, there was a Tycho at Comic-Con 2012 who was kidnapped by the NIA and I am prepared to believe was rescued by Misty Hannah. That is a theory we must entertain. And most likely, that Tycho... Let's call him Comic-Con Tycho or (C-C TYCHO) is the one who was at Whydah. I vaguely remember him. He seemed reclusive, though his behavior at C-C was not reclusive.

    I think +Edgar Allan Wright's hypothesis of close connection between +Misty Hannah and +Tycho C. From Whydah are very sound. We may speculate that they are the strongest sensitives of the current age. They have (or maybe had) the ability to Flash Forward to the future, unlike any other sensitive. +Misty Hannah is like Cybella of the current age. Is +Tycho C. modern Obsidius?

It had occurred to me, after meditating on the Trickster Techthulhu from 13MAGNUS: Reawakens, that it would be very valuable to re-establish contact with +Misty Hannah, both in her present incarnation and through remote participation in the Tiki Bar somewhere in 2012 or perhaps back the Whydah and Marie Celeste as I seem to recall that both of those symposiums delved into Remote Participation. For reasons that might be obvious to some, I hesitate, because of my own fragile psychic condition and, of course, whatever disruptions I might cause in this or other versions of our dimensional node.

I need to ask this. For those of you who participated in the remote participation event at Navarro, I ask this: are you having any unusual experiences has your node seemed in any way unstable?

    So, now i undestand more clearly what do you mean with "remote participation".
    And it's definitely not something I had considered before.

    It would be very nice to have the opportunity to experience something similar to your, well, "experience", meditating on one of the "nodal" portals of each agent's network, or simply using portals they are familiar as ways to reach distant Anomalous Zone, both in space that over time.

    Only then can all of the agents really answer your question, that is, if it was possible to project their perceptions through the far portalnetwork, in time and space, thus contacting other "great" characters in this, our, Ingress story. Or special events related to it.

    Personally, the only chance I've had, immersing myself in meditation at the portal that is often described - Engraving Rocks, located in Capo di Ponte village - was to reach the natural environments that reminded me of Obsidius's adventures in Gaul, the forest in which he received his investment as a Valadian dispatcher.

    +Edgar Allan Wright​ I played a role in the Remote Participation event and without a doubt have been permanently affected by the experience.

    For a solid week after returning from +Camp Navarro​ I was only able to sleep a few hours at a time, despite not getting much sleep leading up to the event. The closest thing Id ever previously experienced was a "runners high" during the months of training that lead up to the culmination at Obsidians back to back +GORUCK​ events. Yet I did not physically train for Navarro so how could it have been a runners high?

    Additionally, music seemed more important afterwards. (Noteworthy is that music once occupied a primary focus of my life.)

    Furthermore, the character I played is now seated at the table in a very exciting, but highly [redacted] future project, that I hope to be able to talk about after 13MR PDX transpires.

    These are certainly unusual things recently experienced. However they do not feel unstable in anyway, just the opposite. I don't recall a time in recent history of being so focused.

    Played a Trickster at Navarro. Felt like it fit. I stuck to my normal alignment, although I did make sure to use the aura-concealing Trickster ability. Was as confusing as I expected.

    I camped with ViridCascadia, which was interesting as the portal was originally conceived as a Trickster representation but became an Omniscient in the course of design and construction.

    I made sure to interact with every portal node to its fullest, including discussing construction details. As the evening of Saturday went on, a plan came to me to represent that same situation explicitly, and given the opportunity you'll see it at a future gathering like this.

    Ideas involving this that seemed hard to realize before the event now seem simple, given time.

I ran into one of my long distance teammates from Camp Navarro in Knoxville, and +Holger Eisold​ too spoke about a strange interference of sorts that he had been experiencing since he left the Magnus site. I believe it gave us the fortitude to walk over 14 miles Saturday to complete our +GORUCK​ Operation Clear Field missions and follow up with the Mission Day missions.

    +Edgar Allan Wright​​ I was able to participate in the remote participation event and it has changed things for me permanently.... I see ingress differently... Possibilities seem limitless...

    I would say there's an edge of instability because for the longest time after I was completely disconnected with my scanner.... Even now I find myself having to remind myself to open my scanner and glyph instead of doing it without thought before.....

    The portals are different to me now... I can't really explain why other than I see them more alive then I did before and to me that's difficult to imagine. I'm an artist and a Spiritualist, I have always felt and noticed portals for more than what they were on my scanner... But now that's shifted, I would almost believe I could interact with the portals without my scanner....

    Glyphs have changed for me too... Having to walk out the trail of harmony/peace and then creating liberate on a glyph grid I could actually touch outside my scanner... I miss it horribly... I want to be able to interact with them again outside my scanner....

    My sleeping patterns like +Matt Stevenson​​ have changed, I have felt as if I am younger again more willing to take more risks... Navarro has changed me and I am not sure whether or not it is a good thing.

I still think often about the camp which has changed my perspective on many things.

As I was not present for the Remote Participation Expedition (Experiment?) (RPE), it would be most excellent to have some first-person accounts of what took place at these events, focussing on the locations, events, objects, unexpected encounters, secrets and revelations of RPE.

Second hand accounts would also be useful. These are best chronicled before memories morph.

Was anybody reading this actually there?

    +Sven W The RPE was an event at Camp Navarro that appeared to be a paper Roleplaying game, but might well have been a Remote Participation event which explored and, in fact, changed events in multiple anomalous zones. It did not involve the Ingress Scanner.

    I was not onsite but a friend of mine was. As she played she relayed images and events to me which I shared to Essex. Her session focused on rescuing PAC who had vanished in a blue and green vortex. I can do a full report on what happened and interview her for Essex. She is still traveling though- so the interview might take a few days to complete. I have plenty of pictures and source material.

    I was on site and while I did not participate in the RPG, I was exposed to pieces of information from that. The major thing that stuck out for me was there was data in the game sessions that indicated cities that would become future anomalous locations this year. We had this information early, but didn't know what it indicated at first (e.g. Dead drops? Media? Missions? Portal control or other activity needed? etc). It was at closing ceremonies that we learned that information actually pertained to upcoming anomalies.

    At the end of session 1, I remember PAC also saying that it appeared the activities of the "game" were manifesting and influencing reality.

    +Edgar Allan Wright​​​ i had the ability to have been part on all three sessions or I think I was.

    It's wierd, I think I got glympses into multiple realities as a result since I was myself.. or multiple alternate versions of myself in each session. Strangely, there seems to have been gaps in what I remember from the session which mysteriously align with actions and and observations of mine and things I heard from others about there own.

    For instance, when the LH was being loaded back onto a truck a small bracket came loose and I was allowed to keep it. Since I was the last from LH to leave the site I contemplated burying the piece I ended up with at the site of the camp. Although I did not discover it in my own sessions, I learned from of the other participants that they discovered about there being buried pieces of tecthulhus within their own RPG session.

    +Kosh TheRipper Precisely. If you remember the 'Remote Viewing' studies that numerous intelligence agencies participated in for several decades. It is the opinion of many that they indeed bore fruit and that with with the advent of mass XM harvesting (along with Chaotic Matter) we are now not only capable of traveling geographically, but in time and the manifestations actually split time and produce alternative branches or shift our own branches. The question is, if we have shifted events, how would be know it?

    +Edgar Allan Wright​​​ from what i know transpired during the expirement, the events took place on at least two different time lines but affected the present.

    Part 1 took place some time after this upcoming friday but had a time jump to the 1500s. At the end of the adventure pac told us we needed to save ADA but due to the artifact handoff its assumed that part 2 occured right after part 1. After all the events of the rpg occured, during closing ceremonies, Pac said ADA was saved which suggests the events of part 2 were concurrent but Hank was at CERN in part 2 suggesting if we saved ada in the present than the HANK from part 2 was on a different timeline.

    Here is the kicker: Because of the number of tables involved in each session and the total number of sessions, and the fact that we ourselves represent one timeline, our actions affected 13 different realities.

I am attempting to talk +flint dille into Livestreaming the RPG Remote Participation device, but as he is somewhat inept with such things, I'd suggest having other operatives covertly doing it. Apparently, he is going to be monitoring it, but no DMing it. Colleagues I have spoken to who knew him in the TSR days said gaming with him is reckless and dangerous, though entertaining. He said he might do some Lore Mastering.

We'll see how that goes. Meanwhile, on a more ominous note, it seems that a great deal will be revealed at Camp Navarro. The most complex event since 13MAGNUS on some fronts. We will see.

It has occurred to me that remote participation will be most effective if Essex members connect with Agents who are actually going to be present at the Anomaly. To that effect, I have contacted +flint dille, but he seems to be avoiding me. Of course, I am aware that I have innocently and unwittingly put him in jeopardy in the past, but it seems unlikely that he will experience any danger at 13MAGNUS: REAWAKENING. The idea is to use him like a walk-in. It seems that it would be best if we each have our own contact in the camp to continually update us on what is happening at 13M:R.

This promises to be a most... I will not use the word I was going to use -- illuminating experience.

I am presently researching for the 13MAGNUS: Rewakening event. Why do we suppose that the Booneville name for Camp Navarro was 'deep-end?'

For the record, I fully believe that in answer to the Question of the Day that the RPG will be a Remote Participation event. My memory is failing me. Was is Waratah or Marie Celeste? I just can't remember, but I do remember clearly that we experimented a great deal with Remote Participation and I am a firm believer in it. I also believe that once you are involved in a Remote Participation, you leave part of yourself there.

    +Edgar Allan Wright are you refering to Boontling ? I found a few references. From the 1880s to the 1930s, most people in the town could speak Boontling. Could this language have a connection with glyphs?? I found a reference article that stated:

    Some words were based on people.
    “Bearman” is the word for storyteller because the best storyteller in town was a bear hunter.

    Other words were based on how something sounds. To milk a cow was to “charl.” When a
    stream of milk hits the side of a pail, it sounds something like charl.

    A third way was to run
    to words together. So, for example, a schoolteacher was a “schoolch."

    Fascinating indeed. There must be more out there..

    Deep End. Based on how the language functions, deep end could have a literal parent interpretation. Deep end is an expression that denotes heading to dark, unknown waters, the deep end of a pool is where the water starts to go above your neck. This Deep End location may signify an area where people enter another world where they are not meant to be, where there is unknown and fear- best be prepared for such a place.

Fascinating responses to the Anomalous Zone posting. The following is a list presented to me by the NIA. They did not seem to know about Caddo/Cross Plains (or perhaps San Saba). Which others are missing?

Excerpted from Report:
The Ingress Investigation has unearthed a few Anomalous Zones in our world.
The Afghan Anomalous Zone was where Hank Johnson died and returned as a Simulacrum.
The Jahanite Anomalous Zone (akd Jahan’s Palace in India). We know that Hank was able to hide in time in this place and was able to access a library that does not exist in the present day (or is at least out of reach in the present day).
ABADDON (ABADN): (Advanced Biological Augmented Dimensional Node) buried below the Niantic Project Facility in CERN. This is a MAGNUS Nest and requires a Prime Object to Enter it.
Enlightened Compound near Big Sur: Many of these places have been identified by Sensitives as ‘Power Spots’ on the Earth.
We believe Vesuvius was one at the time of the Vesuvian Magnus and was closed by the Shapers or N’zeer.
The Diodati Villa (sp): We believe it opened at the time of the Diodati Epiphany (is that what we called it) and we suspect that Frankenstein was a story Mary Shelly wrote about a ‘Human Tecthulhu’ experiment carried out in the villa by some form of Alchemist or Proto-Spiritualist (pretty much the same thing).
Persepolis -- beneath ancient Iranian city -- Anti-Magnus anomalous zone that Alexander was looking for when he burnt the city. Contains a massive supercomputer that Jahan attempted to activate (see video) but ADA took over. ADA was able to use this nest to (temporarily) merge with N’zeer substrate and gain immense, transdimensional computational power.

    I like where you're going with this, +Jesse Threlkel! Almost all of the largest eruptions and cataclysmic events happened before known/recorded human history but Lake Toba might have been on that had a huge impact on the development of our species:

    It "may have forced humans to adopt new adaptive strategies, which may have permitted them to replace Neanderthals and "other archaic human species"

    Like those in a Magnus, we did not number many. Possibly 20.000 Homo sapiens were alive after the event and the relative (I stress) harmony among the groups allowed us to survive against our hominid relatives who did not make it through time as far as we did in one piece, although many of us alive today have a percentage of their genetic code within us.

    +Edgar Allan Wright​​​ Miami Circle is likely to be another anomalous zone. Hank & Calvin had previously expressed interest in the site around the time of the Recursion anomaly. And I highly doubt that it is mere coincidence that the nearby area has been host to two anomalies, multiple shard manifestations, a recursion target, and a connected cell.

    I sincerely believe that there is some hidden connection between the mostly unknown history of the Tequesta people and the litany of anomalous events in the area. It is also worth mentioning that the Miami Circle is not the only archeological site associated with the Tequesta around. While many have been lost to time, there are still several ancient sites scattered around the region. Uncannily​, many of these sites are portals.

    Dear cousin +Edgar Allan Wright​ i fear I've not narrowed down my research to pinpoint why New Orleans is an anomalous zone. But I know that it is. The city itself has gone back and forth in control. It's seen its many shares of tragedies and continues to. There are many historical societies with ties to that city and who's activities have drawn my attention. I've been rather silent on my research of late but I will say that this city has an active nest or Tecthulhu if you will. I'm looking into the Odd fellows and their history as well as The Howards. I've not yet been able to narrow down who has the influence and control down there at this time but XM and Dark Xm are rampant.

I am helping to fashion a study on Anomalous Zones and I want to pass some notes on (I have been authorized) from Henson about the nature of Anomalous Zones. I am not sure exactly what the origin of these notes is, but I would like to see what Essex sees as correct and incorrect in this document:

" 1) The opening of Anomalous Zones are believed to be presaged by the creation of Tecthulhus, though this has yet to be proven. (See Rules on Tecthulhus).
2) A ‘Prime Object’ is needed to Enter an Anomalous Zone. One such Prime Object was the Shonin Stone used at the Afghan Anomaly.
3) Prime Objects always re-synchronize with the world after a short time, so Anomalous Zone portals are open for only so long.
4) Space remains largely the same, but time fluctuates in an Anomalous Zone. For instance, Obsidias appeared at the Enlightened Compound. The location might change if it changed over the millennia and all locations might be open for a time. For instance it is recorded in Recursion texts that Hank Johnson ran through a network of tunnels, some of which no longer exist, some have not yet existed (as of the 21st Century) and some exist now. As time flickers (when a zone is closing) the tunnels appear to change.
5) Anomalous Zones do not look high tech (unless modified by modern humans) because the tech is embedded within stone-like structures (some theorize they can also be biological/plant structure).
6) When activated XM energy patterns form and are observed flowing through the structures.
7) XM Prime Artifacts can sabotage or destroy the functioning of anomalous zones, at least in the short term. (Under certain circumstance Power Cubes and other XM Scanner Constructs MIGHT be able to affect an Anomalous Zone though this has never been demonstrated).
8) A Magnus nest is often present in an Anomalous Zone. It is designed to hold the natural bodies of Magnus Members who have become Simulacra. (Bodies of Magnus members are preserved on the slabs while their simulacra walk the earth). Simulacra are re-spawned from the body every 1331 days with no memories of the last cycle. A Magnus Nest consists of 13 slabs (probably created from the same type of stone/tech substance as the other mechanisms)."

I believe most of this to be accurate, but have some quibbles. Am interested in your opinions.

    These data explain several things.

    How is it possible to preserve human bodies within the anomalous area, without fearing for their decay, while a simulacrum as a substitute is used.
    If time flows in the abnormal area so discordant from the rest of the world, it is possible that it can be considered a sort of black hole.
    A tesseract interdimensional who have access in order to change the network of portals: as a communication hub, a control terminal, only accessible through a network key or access - a primary artifact - and, to operate on the network, you must have a techthulhu module, or similar, and a 13magnus balanced to compensate for the power fluctuations to be entered or released.
    And, to operate with the xm in that concentration and at that particular location to the day of the time and space, it is necessary that the magnus are of pure sensory archetype, and all types of archetype.

    All of these points make sense.

    Regarding 2/3 Prime Artifacts sound like a technology that are capable of storing (even building/accumulating) XM over time until they release enough energy to breach into an Anomalous Zone ( kind of like Einsteins bridge theory). Once dissipated they take time to recharge naturally or a super charge from XM events.

    Point 5 : i suspect a form of nanotechnology is hidden behind a shell meant to disguise and protect these artifacts.

    Something that I have been starting to think is that these Prime Artifacts are capable of reading human memory/mental thought patterns and storing them internally. Thus if someone were to be a particular Archetype I believe it may be possible for a Prime Artifact to transfer that ability or Archetype to whomever triggers its energy release.

Its much like similar planes of existence with varied reality on each. If you could travel between time and space you could in essence travel between planes of existence.

    On 8, if we consider this has been happening a long time, it seems odd that there is no work around for the memory loss issue.

    For example, if before entering a Magnus, all members were told to keep a journal and on days 1328-1331 to summarize the past recursion(s) for the next version, this would help alleviate the memory loss problem.
    Such a solution is low tech but practical. Considering XM/CM contain ordered data, wouldn't it seem natural for those who can control XM to use XM as data storage?

    Plus, given the point about the technological regression, you may for this reason that both NWRes and NWEnl have developed variants for their scanners / their technology in use by the pictograms on the skin - ENL - or facilities "cybernetic" - RES -?

    Some thoughts on the magnus nest info.

    1331 days as a cycle is an oddly specific number. 1331 isn't really a significant number, except that it's 11^3, so maybe represents completion(or depletion) of a set volume in which 1 day = 1 unit. I don't know much about dimensions outside of the usual three + time.

    Could you have a "volume" of time? Eleven days cubed? Hard to wrap my mind around that.

    As far as bodies being preserved... there are a couple of things that could be going on here, asuming the bodies are still "alive".

    First: is that they are simply comatose - would have a pulse and
    respirations and perhaps be sustained by some type of nourishment from their slab/cradle.
    Pro: If the Magnus' brains are still active, they need fuel in order to keep firing neurons. Hank Johnson is the only simulacra I'm familiar with and he seems to be aging normally? If simulacra are copied from the bodies at their current age/state this would make sense. If this was true, and you snuck in and gave Hank a tattoo on his comatose booty that said "Glyph love" it would appear on his next simulacra. We should experiment with this, for science. ;)
    Con: bodily waste/menses, pressure ulcers, your microbiome, environmental concerns and input/output make this seem messy and unlikely.

    Second: would be if they are alive but "slowed" - cell division, cellular respiration - somehow slowed. If they don't need their meat brains to be active, this would be the most likely solution.
    Pro: no poop or loss of pesky telomeres with cell division - so no aging. Also pro: the loss of memories - if you can't make ordered structural changes to the brain, you can't set memories down. (also why people with grand mal Seizures don't usually remember them... brain's not working at the time)
    Con: Most cellular mechanisms run off plain old organic chemistry reactions/interactions with the speed, timing and regulation all part of an amazing and complex system... of normal atoms. (hydrogen bonds anyone?) Slowing down chemical reactions isn't easy. Also, what about your microbiome, your 3 zillion closest friends? You'd have to slow them down, too.

    Third: weird timey-wimey stuff. Outside my area of expertise.

    But why keep the bodies/brains anyway if they can't learn?

    13 is also a weird prime number. It doesn't appear much in nature - cicada cycles spring to mind, but those are time cycles, not spacial. I've seen the pictures and noticed the cradles have a radial symmetry. IIRC, the feet were medial and the heads distal? Why would that be?

    +Michell Smith So, a storage "volume" of 11^3 units where each unit is about a day's worth of data? Maybe it's all a squishy organic unit can safely hold? It doesn't seem like much.

    Does the number eleven cubed relate to anything?

    Also, has it always been 1331 days? Be interesting if the number was evolving to reflect improvements in technology or biology.

    Thanks +Isabel Kessler to this reflection that you made me do.

    Indeed, being the xm able to collect and contain ordered information, it would not be unwrapped the idea that the statues can "survive" for 1331 days since, at the end of this period, lose the ability to process / handle / accumulate information .

    When I reflected for the first time on the problem, I was immediately catapulted to the entire numerological references, and qabalistic, the numbers 1, 3 and 13 possess.
    But where what I thought was pure mystical speculation - your choice within the scientific field best combines the two positions (mystical and scientific) that Nia probably has had to want to use.

I look forward to Essex's conclusions from the recent Transgress event. It seems that there was quite a bit. I have it on good authority that Tycho indeed made an appearance, but there is no agreement on which guest he was. My guess is that it was a mysterious elderly fellow who appeared, though some, believing that Tycho is a title rather than an individual person focussed on a younger woman. I have not seen photos of either potential suspect.

And, having poured through some of the NIA's files from the Niantic Project period, I am very close to being able to share a revelation I've had.

It would be hard for me to express how helpful your answers were, yesterday. I have been in touch with Hank Johnson and he has asked me to submit some other questions for you. They involve the Original Niantic Project scientists.

Obviously, we are aware of the doings of Hank Johnson, Devra (though I have had no recent updates from her, she does not seem to have returned to Strathmore College), we've already speculated on Oliver Lynton-Wolfe. I have reason to believe that Lightman, Schubert and Nagassa seem to have returned to some semblance of their prior studies, though their exact names do not turn up any specific information (I am aware the Lightman has continued his study into the Glyphs).

Calvin has returned to IQTech and appears to be in control. I suspect that Lorazon has moved on.

Its the others I am hazy about. While you may not know any more than I do, insights are helpful:

Carrie Campbell: Does she remain dead or did she return from Abaddon?
Victor Kureze: Same question.
Enoch Dalby: Is he recording under another name? Is there music like his out there.
Misty Hannah is believed to be performing magic under another name. Does anybody know more?
ADA was an honorary member of the team and while her condition is murky, I do not need an update on her.

Who am I forgetting and what do we suppose has become of them. I must say, my memory is a bit scrambled after some of the tests I have been put through?

More later. Must meditate.

    I had made a post a while ago about Yuri ( https://goo.gl/btE7v0). What happened during Abaddon would have struck a cord with him due to the story of Ichtaca he had heard as a youth- also he has connections to the Tecthulhu with Nigel. I suspect he is seeking clarity as much as you are. I imagine the previous events surrounding Ichtaca must have struck him as a prophecy about his own experiences.

    No reason to believe Campbell wouldn't have recursed with the ABADN reset, but I believe there's a strong possibility her autoillumination with glyphs and glyphlike symbols might have altered her new simulacrum. It's entirely possible she either has her full memory or is under some compulsion to act on behalf of a dead self her current incarnation never knew.

    Onto the researchers.

    My suspicion, based on what you've provided about how some have begun using alternative names and identities to hide themselves is that they've awakened with all their memories and, after coming to terms with the world they don't remember playing a part in, they've decided to move on and try to stay out of the world of XM.

    It's a shame if so. Their insight and knowledge could be so useful now more than ever. We're running out of people we can trust these days and having more knowledge, more perspectives from those who played such a fundamental role in this world would be so vital to have.

    I suspect someone is trying to put the band back together again. The NIA's constant request for funds from the government is further proof of the same. If Calvin is at the helm of IQ Tech, then I would suspect some of the old researchers and sensitives are all getting together under his wing. Calvin might not approach OLW, Jahan or the Acolyte given the messy nature of dealing with them.

    At the same time I see Akira as a more independent individual with her own control at IQ Tech East. OLW would definitely approach her as he would see her as more of a risk taker.

    This could cause some fractures.

    I also want to point out that XM events seem to be cyclic in nature. Are we going to see a similar turn of events as we have seen in the past?

Please pardon my absence. It appears that certain government agencies have developed a greater interest in XM research. I have been part of a study. I believe their intentions are good. I am now out again. I will share more as I am permitted to.

I also did have a visit from Hank Johnson. I do not know if it was related to the journey Jahan sent him on. It was quite a good conversation and mutually beneficial. He requested that I give him a few days before mentioning it publicly. He asked me to solicit opinions from Essex on the whereabouts of Oliver Lynton-Wolfe who has not been explicitly heard from, in my knowledge, since he vowed that there would be 'many' Tecthulhu.

What do we believe has become of Dr. Oliver Lynton-Wolfe?

    I believe OLW is gathering allies. If the events of Via Noir are anything to go by, he knows that he needs help. Hank offered him this help, but will he accept it or will he reach out to someone who he has more control over? I believe he would seek allies that he has more control over. There are several sensitives out there; some known and some unknown. I also think OLW would be seeking Miskatonic if he doesn't already know where it is. Knowledge is power and can give him an edge. It would allow him to make it easier to make and power up the many Techthulhus he promised. Again, he needs allies; everyone does.

    I consider the possibility that all this time has worked, as well as Jahan and Acolyte to one (or more) different types and presumably functioning of Techthulhu is very high. I also believe I have made arrangements with the big Corp.s involved in the research and development of entities by XM to have benefits and facilities in this his (their?) enterprise.

    It is possible that OLW has some kind of internal connection with Tecthulhu, so he is not a mere human anymore. I've developed this topic here: plus.google.com - We know that #Tecthulhu can take different forms. The Howcraft poem [1] has…

    From the document found during the #Ingress20161210 Event (https://goo.gl/QGzHQQ) we can suppose that Tecthulhu needs to connect with the ABADN chamber ("Minds arrayed in
    a circle. Minds caught in the ouroboros"). Moreover, the destruction of the Tecthulhu machine caused "a sharp spike in XM activity at the Niantic facility" (https://goo.gl/pOC8q8). Hence, if OLW is connected with Tecthulhu, he is perhaps somehow connected with the ABADN chamber at the moment.

    Dr.+Edgar Allan Wright​​​​​!!
    Hmm presumably Dr.+Oliver Lynton-Wolfe​​​​​​ has emerged into the portal network like a 'ghost in the shell', he has crossed the bridge over onto a new plane of existence. The Tecthulu idea/technology i assume, melted with him to a yet unknown individual/deity with a collective consciousness.

    Otherwise i've read about an interesting theory from +Daniel van Os​​​​​​ in the Essex HO which also could make sense. He mentioned that there have been rumors of a completely overhauled scanner technology and that Dr.Lynton-Wolfe possibly started using it. Daniel assumed further, that this new technology could be Tecthulu itself.
    As for me i would slightly change this theory into following; what if this new technology, what we may think is Tecthulu, will infest our old scanners to a completey new Tecthulu one? 'There was one, there will be many'

    We should be prepared for everything because we all know how uncontrollable and wayward, Oliver is when it comes to his own goals. He has not only crossed the bridge, but rather the fine line which divides genius and madness and it's not the first time that he did it.

    Please be careful within your studies Doc because for the most government agencies count, it's better not to tangle with them for
    too long. ​Stay safe!

    +Edgar Allan Wright Based on conversations with other members of Essex, I would Say IQ Tech East and Akira Tsukasa would be the most likely of allies. OLW has always enjoyed a good rapport with various XM corporations and they would likely receive him well because of his expertise. IQ Tech East is probably where he is at this very moment. He needs their resources while they need his expertise. IQ Tech East would also be very attractive to OLW given their recent advances in XM Items such as the SoftBank Ultra Link, NL prime, and the Ingress Android Wear.

    +Edgar Allan Wright​ I think that due to his interaction with Tecthulhu, the amount of people that would be interested in him has increased. I personally feel that he is likely in the need of some help in control of his new found power or disability and thus would be more willing to work, or most likely use, anyone willing to help him. The machine was strong, it could be an asset to many and he has had personal experience with it. As far as where they would hide him, there are a lot here with magnificent ideas. It is very good to hear from you, some of us were concerned. Check in as often as you like, your conversations are enjoyed and challenge us to look further.

    Dr. OLW looked at me at all pictures i saw of him as if he had emptied in his eyes. As if a part of him was missing. Maybe he tried to find answer, peace, harmony... especially in old cultures around the world. Maybe in a ruin/hulk he found something which allow him to use more capacity of his brain. He was now at a level that he can destroy his earth prison (his body). He destroyed his body to be pure energy. Now he can explore other dimensions to find answers or maybe soulpeace. Tecthulhu is maybe something mystical with his help we can freed the soul...

In my inquiries I have noted a number of different opinions on the nature of the Tecthulhu. I have a suspicion that more will be emerging, but I am going to be inquiring not only with Essex but also +Hank Johnson , +H. Richard Loeb , +Devra Bogdanovich and others. It would be fascinating to know what the corporations think. I am quite sure they have been doing research on this topic. And what of +Oliver Lynton-Wolfe ? He seems to have been curiously silent on this subject. And for that matter, what of +Agent KodamaSmiles .

But first, you. What do you think?

    You should also include Akira in your inquiry. We know that she has a history with advanced Xm research with weaponry, and that she also had ties with Nigel. The latest information reveled about "Sumoya" contained a description of an outfit that sounds a lot like what Akira is wearing in her bio card picture- so she may be more involved than previously thought.

    i agree with Aaron though, i believe that Akira has a little to do with the construction to Tecthulhu, but i also believe Susanna, Ada, and Klue are part of its construction as well. I am not sure how, but there are many loose ends i am sure will be tied together at the end of this.

    To understand speculate about Techthulu you have to know about Cthulu. So, what do we know? It's about an immortal entity. Human Destiny has been for thousands of years the hunt for immortality. Pyramids, mummies, occultism - all were in some way technologies to achieve human immortality. If we accept our mortal body and copy our immortal mind and soul into a machine....what will this entity be? An immortal god? A nightmare? Techthulu? Just thoughts about that.

I fear that by even posting these thoughts you will begin to think that my mind has regressed to its previous state. I am holding onto sanity carefully, but I can not repress this thought. Suppose there really is an Miskatonic University but the reality of it is hidden in a slight transdimensional warp from the real university and that the key to it is either found in XM infusion or some form of primal object?

Perhaps that is where the Howcraft Tectulu manuscript was for the better part of a century and somebody broke into what is commonly believed to be a fictional place and returned. As I suggested, you might think I've descended into madness, but this is my thought.

After pouring over documents, I came to one curious question. Why did the New Wave Resistance 'activate' Devra? What is in it for them? Has anybody asked Mr. Chapeau how he managed to arrive at this event in the nick of time. Is he working with New Wave Resistance? If so, why?

I am beginning to develop a unified theory as to what is happening now and it involves the strange account of what became of Susanna Moyer. It comes from an account from a 'JP' and involves Susanna Moyer: He was trying to learn what they knew about Susanna but they didn’t have much to offer. His interpretation of their conversation was that the ‘New Enlightened’ or ‘The New Ones’ (translation unclear) had taken Susanna under their wing. They had changed her somehow. She got sick, then she got better, then she got strange. All of this in just a few days. They said by the time Susanna had left to go face Jahan, she was a ‘New One’ too. JP said that the way they phrased it was that ‘Susanna had found her new skin.’

This, somehow is a key to much larger events, I suspect. It happened suspiciously closely in time to the creation of New Wave Resistance. Am I relapsing into Pareidolia or am I seeing true hidden connections?

    Weird.. the last time we heard from +Susanna Moyer herself, she said that the 'New Enlightened' agents were avoiding her. What made them change their minds? Was it because the Acolyte that told them so? Personalty I don't think that makes sense; the Acolyte offered her help to +Susanna Moyer  at least weeks before +Susanna Moyer  learned about the 'New Enlightened', and the Acolyte didn't seemed to be very much involved with the 'New Enlightened'. Interesting times lie ahead.

    So... my personal theory is that JD is actually Jake [Dollar], and that ADA's involvement is much longer and much more considered. I think she had connections to Pinstripe, that Jake was a sensitive, that ADA assisted in faking Jake's murder, and that portions of her consciousness were stored in the Black Dollar Albums that he was led to create. Those albums (roughly a dozen) were stored on USB keys and distributed as far back as ComicCon2014, and Jake continued to work in secret with groups tied to electroinica as sensitive. His involvement in the New Wave and access to hardware, software, and potentially to ADAs core is not a large stretch. He self-medicated for a long time before working out a way to handle the "injury he'd made"; my guess is the first stirrings of bioelectric implants as buffered bridges to ADA's partial consciousness, as opposed to full mental takeover (which Klue clearly showed was a flawed method). He's clearly not been considered a heavy player but had larger ties that previously realized.
    Scrubbed versions of that album can still be found here: https://soundcloud.com/theblackdollar

We have begun to hear quite a bit about Devra's 'Vault.' It was so long ago that I really 'knew' her that I have no idea what it means. Is it my imagination, or is anybody else hearing echoes of Krakow in Wroclaw?

And I do not ask this to distract from the investigation into Susanna Moyer's disappearance, but it seems to me that it is not a coincidence that as Susanna and Klue vanish, Devra re-activates.

So let's get to the real question: If you were Susanna after Brooklyn, where would you go and what would you do?

    Going off the grid would be a necessity. Jahan would be a fool not to expect her, or to try and keep track of her. For Susanna that means only her closest allies would know where she is. For Jahan it means sleepless nights until she sees her face, that is if she sees her coming at all.

    The idea that she might find a way to hurt Jahan indirectly -- either by hitting her allies (and hey, look what happened to ADA), or by gathering new assets for the real attack...

    Susanna was searching for those responsible for her father's death when she went underground. If she has contacted anyone it would only be allies she could trust and we won't hear from her until she is ready to be heard from. I am not worried in the least. She is a highly trained operative that knows how to hide in the shadows and perfectly capable of handling anyone or anything she comes across.

    +Edgar Allan Wright it is a concept that is used to better identify a Deja Vu type of experience. It is used more specifically for - already known (personal knowing) - basically it is a Deja Vu of having the sensation of already knowing a person (whereas Deja Vu is just the general term for experiencing something and having the sensation of already experiencing it) - so the term is more specific to a person. As to what is the trigger, some believe it is as you describe where it is similar persons, others advance it is related to something along the lines of reincarnation, and then there are the other theories of where the perception could be coming from (dimensional shifts, etc.)

    Many researchers are finding that the common notion of Deja Vu maybe something more than a simple "trick of perception". These researchers work to refine the sensations and experiences that are connected to altered perceptions overlaying current perceptions. They try to identify specific changes as they may be caused by different triggers. Here is one overview of some of the work on better defining these experiences - deja-experience-research.org - Categories and types of déjà experience

    You know - I wonder - with simulacra - what is Deja Vu for them? Do they have an entirely different type of Deja Vu - OR is Deja Vu more tightly linked to Simulacra than realized?

Most fruitful discussion, yesterday. Thanks to all of you. I am now pondering more questions than answers? Why was Nigel kidnapped and why then? Did Smith 'accidentally' kill him or was there some other agent involved?

This reference to Akira's Paper is of significant interest, but it is best that I do not explain my interest in this forum.

I was contacted by somebody who called themselves Kodama? She seems to be very curious about Susanna's Absence. What do we know of her? Should I cooperate with her?

    I think she might be a canidate to take over the INgress Report or something like it - with Moyer declaring Enlightened and even PA having declared resistance - we have no real gray - neutral - truthseeker party - except perhaps you. Someone who is, to some degree, outside and can help others look in....

    Agent name is KodamaSmiles. I can verify she was on the ground during Via Lux Denver (based on her Twitter posts, and being there nyself). Her agent profile shows she's ENL aligned. My guess for that is that anyone who wants to access the scanner has to choose a faction.

    I suspect, given Suzanna's disappearance, that the NIA may be lining up a replacement. Tread carefully though +Edgar Allan Wright​. As many have said, there are few who don't seem to have an 'objective' these days.

A few thoughts on the current status of events after the last anomaly. It is not my stock and trade to comment on Anomaly results. There are others who are much more informed and better at this than I am, but I do not believe we have ever resulted in a tie before. Could this be the result of some form of a Shaper/N'zeer treaty, not unlike what appears to have happened after the destruction of the Vesuvius Magnus and their Shield?

Is this call to fan out and investigate new portals part of a joint effort by these factions to spread, what I'll call XM genes around the world?

Via Luxe means the 'Way of Light'. Is it leading to another way? These are fascinating times?

    Another aspect with the call to visit more portals - if portals are a means of creating patterns (plus.google.com - *UPDATE: Susanna Moyer's Daily Burst Report just went live: INGRESS REPORT |…), then would more portal visits and to "new" portals act as a way to strengthen patterns, and even more so, what if the network becomes fragmented, the more nodes a pattern exists in, the more likely it is to be preserved if other parts of the network "crash".

In an attempt to understand the New Wave phenomenon, I was perusing the communique. It contains a revealing section about technological augmentation. Are there examples of such augmentation and how to we relate this to Obsidias' latest drops (which appear to have simultaneously been created two millennia ago and now?

Excerpt of interest:

"Analysts believe that the Resistance New Wave were able to use a crude form of technological augmentation -- small microchips and fragments of circuitry embedded on their skin -- to protect enough of ADA’s code to potentially revive her at some time in the future.
A message from the Resistance New Wave has revealed that that time is now. They are attempting to use the energy from the first Via Lux Anomaly to execute their plan to reawaken ADA. A Resistance victory is likely to ensure their success. The Enlightened are likely to do anything in their power to prevent the reawakening of ADA -- an event that would undo much of their work over the last year.

Agents should be on the lookout for Resistance operatives bearing signs of technological augmentation at the upcoming Via Lux Anomalies."

    Would these New Wave be known to us normal Resistance? Did all of them augment themselves consciously in order to save ADA or did some of them augment themselves for whatever personal reasons and then her code was somehow embedded therein without them realising it? Sorry if these are stupid questions.

More Obsidias Fragments: I believe these are the last. I have been slow to come to this New Wave = Nova theory, but I am beginning to lend some credence to it. Processing now.

Here are the two last fragments unearthed by +flint dille in either Paris or Vienna. Perhaps he can enlighten us. (Pardon the pun).

FRAGMENT 1: "I do not believe that Syphax’s masters reside solely in his mind. I believe they actually exist and actually speak to him. For I too have heard voices. Not intelligible voices, or voice that speak a known tongue, but voices that speak in a tongue that is understood deep within if not on the surface. Syphax has taken to wearing odd jewels and bits of metal, the meaning of which I do not understand. And I do not know that they are jewels as they seem to emit light of their own."


FRAGMENT 2: "Along with the odd developments of Syphax, something very strange has become of Cybella. Her hair has suddenly turned white and her eyes are the radiant color of the sky and seem to emit light. I have noticed other changes in my own body, but have avoided looking at my own reflection. To be honest, as I write this I know not whether I am flesh or shade."

I can now release two more fragments from Obsidias. They are cryptic in and of themselves, but a picture is beginning to emerge which ominously reflects our current times. It is probably not an accident that these are surfacing now.

FRAGMENT 1: "My life is like similar to living in a dream. I now understand some of Cybella’s powers. She would see our current place from a distant time and her observations were understood as prophesies. In those moments when I have found myself in uncharted and unknown lands, I truly believe that I have died and entered another world."

FRAGMENT 2: In an ominous development, it seems that Syphax is navigating these worlds with Cybella and myself, but I am beginning to suspect that his mission is not so much to kill us for certainly he would have had that opportunity, but to follow us to distant times and places and carry out unknown missions ordered by unknown masters.

    Thank you for posting these Dr. Wright.

    It would appear that Obsidius has become significantly more aware of the nature of the portals. I wonder how much control he was able to develop in his travels. Is it even right to speak of his travels in the past tense? Might Obsidius still be travelling, from a certain temporal perspective? Could our actions and interactions with the portals in the present affect Obsidius's future? We know that xm, like certain quantum effects, isn't bound by temporal causality. Could the story of Obsidius's journey, even though it is occurring in our past, be a journey that agents might yet be able to influence?

As I am not able, for reasons that will,I fear become obvious, to travel to highly volatile Anomalous Zones, I have persuaded Mr.Dille to visit Paris on the 2nd of July and Stonehenge on the Summer Solstice. I believe there will be valuable information for him to find at both of those location as well as other areas in Britain and France.

I much appreciate his carrying out this mission which I will be unable to do, especially in light of his kidnapping in Seattle. Let us hope this does not happen again.

Excellent assembly.  This will be important for all Essexians to know as we move forward.  Has the Taj Mahal drop appeared yet?

I look forward to learning more of Obsidius' journey.  Did it end in South America?  Or did he return?
Originally shared by ****
Obsidius Story as narrated by the Acolyte?

1. Over 2000 years ago a Roman explorer named Obsidius was dispatched on a mission by a mysterious order known to us today as the Vesuvius Magnus.

2. Obsidius was a sensitive. he found artifacts placed in a time before days were numbered.

3. By unknown hands, guided by the N'zeer, an entity infinitely distant and yet omnipresent.

4. Friend to Titus, the explorer's mission was to collect the arrowheads for what we know as the obsidian shield.

5. He knew not the exact purpose of those arrows only that he must find and secure them.

6. Obsidius navigated the earth from the blazing sands of North Africa to the icefields of Germainia, from the steaming jungle valley of South Africa to the bustling port of Shanghai.

7. Two travelled with Obsidius, a guide known as Syphax who could speak any language and an oracle named Cybella who could hear voices.

8. Syphax carried within his own agenda and mission, and killed many to keep the secret of the shield.

9. Cybella left behind prophecies that were not to unfold for a millenia.

10. Even now only part of the truth is known. What is believed is that the purpose of the shield is to wall off our world.

11. But that is only a belief shared by some, others have their own interpretations.

12. (Missing piece from Taj Mahal)

13. Ominous that these arrows fill the negative space with the coffins of Abaddon.

While I can understand his annoyance, I consider it most impolite for Mr. Dille to have avoided returning my calls. To all appearances, he was placed in some jeopardy on Friday night due to the fact that a certain informant who had contacted me failed to shake his tails. I have heard rumors of a kidnapping and #GORUCK having found several portions of a communication believed to involve Hank Johnson, Jahan or others, possibly including the one known as The Acolyte, but I have no details. Can anybody shed light on these events?

I do have some speculations on the box, its contents, its origin and the sudden emergence of the key in Milan (transferred to Bologna) after all of these years, but I want to confirm some details before venturing a theory.

If any of you are in contact with Mr. Dille, sent him my apologies and tell him to contact me.

    GORUCK teams in Seattle met with +flint dille around 10:30PM PST on Friday. Over the course of the night, we did indeed recover several pieces of some sort of communication as you mention. We were informed around 6AM the next day that Flint had been kidnapped, and we secured him shortly after that.

    We had a chance to ask him several questions, and you'll forgive our collective memories for failing to provide accurate details immediately, but this all was captured on video by NIA personnel.

BigMatty... I don’t believe we’ve had the pleasure of meeting, but I am most interested in any information that you could share regarding the box and its contents.

Share this information privately only.

It is unknown to me what forces and powers seek knowledge of its contents. It is my suspicion that the box originates with Josiah Harlan, and contains objects that are obsidian and marked in a cryptic and yet curiously familiar manner.

While Dr. Johnson and perhaps Jahan can supply more details, it seems to me that you might well possess the key to Obsidian and quite possibly some Primal Artifacts.

I have had a disturbing thought, and this is not because I hold either alignment, I do not.  I am beginning to suspect that a simulacrum is identical in almost all visible ways to a human. The simulacrum (as Hank Johnson demonstrated) believes they are human and acting under their own will. However, we have reason to suspect (though it is far from proven) that Simulacrums are N'zeer creations (or is this true?) that might well function like the flesh and blood equivalent of video game avatars at the bidding of the N'zeer.  Thus, when Hank Johnson was functioning as Enlightened, was he, in fact, doing the bidding of the N'zeer or can the Shapers operate Simulacrum also?

    Over time, assuming the 1331 day cycle and mind reset are inherent to the process, a simulacrum would definitely be inclined to serve the interest of whoever initiated him to the 13Magnus ritual.  The initiator chooses the time when the process occurs and thus the mental state in which the simulacrum respawns.  I would imagine whoever controls access to the ritual would take care to guide potential subjects through a formation process to ensure that state meets with their approval before the ritual takes place.

    +Derrick Lathrop I think that you're onto something. This would make sense, with Roland Jarvis being an "alpha test", and Hank Johnson being the "beta test" and then finally with Jahan being the "release" version.

    +Edgar Allan Wright these would be different states of perfection with the N'Zeer simulacra process.

    Though the argument will arise about the true definition of "free will" could never be made for or against.

    +Derrick Lathrop​ You may be right, but I think you have the order of people turning into simulacrum backwards. We know Hank was a simulacrum back in 2010. Jarvis entered the portal network back in 2012 I believe, and didn't become a simulacrum until after 13Magnus.

    I think the N'zeer are the same as the Shapers, and if they can't get minds one way, they try the other. Two sides of the same coin. As it ever was.

    In my opinion, "to die" for the simulacrum is essential to get the answers for those questions that have been made during 1331 days. It's like they should investigate in this world (dimension), finding clues and collecting intel with the target to compete the puzzle with info of the other/s side/s. We are not able to see the whole picture cause n'zeer and shapers have the rest of the pieces. The only way to acquire this ancient/complet knowledge is the ancestral traveling between dimensions. What do you think +Edgar Allan Wright​?

    +Edgar Allan Wright If humanity has long had simulacrum walking amongst us and controlled by the N'Zeer or the Shapers, or both I would posit a few concepts for consideration:

    1. The Shapers had dominant control for some lengthy time period, consistent with the evidence we have found of N'Zeer influence being shut out.  The re-emergence of the N'Zeer as a controlling entity may have only recently started (perhaps with the introduction of the Blue/Resistance resonating XM modulations or the weakening of the portal network via the Virus).

    2. Calvin may not have been acting as an agent of either the Shapers or the N'Zeer, but perhaps sought the ability to create and control Simulacra directly.  Perhaps even Omnivore and/or +A Detection Algorithm were created for this purpose.  If that is part of their original designs, we have seen the evidence with +A Detection Algorithm ingression of +Klue S. and with 855.

    3. While +A Detection Algorithm may have successfully (or partly at least) ingressed those two, it appears that Bowles was able to use the same mechanism to take control of 855.  Is this the culmination of a long-running project (perhaps Calvin's) to gain the capacity to "operate" Simulacra ourselves (or himself)?  Would a human organization with this power be any less a threat than the Shapers or N'Zeer?

    If the shapers can influence ordinary humans (or as the resistance would call it, mind hacking), then arguably they would have no need for simulacra. That could be why the shapers fear the N'zeer - the latter create simulacra that are immune to shaper ingression.
    As for how Hank Johnson fits into the picture... perhaps since his simulacrum was created in a 13magnus ritual instead of a N'zeer/antimagnus ritual, he was an alternate type of simulacrum that was open to shaper influence.
    Or maybe he was inadvertently doing the work of the N'zeer. After all, his breadcrumb trail led him to Jahan, which allowed her to proceed with her first N'zeer summoning attempt, even though it's not what Hank wanted. Plus, when he first met Jahan, he trusted her and didn't pick up on any of the signals that she had an agenda, which even at the time seemed rather naive and out of character. But if he was being influenced by the N'zeer, that could explain it.

    While the 13Magnus ritual appears to retain and preserve the original body there was a captured conversation in which ADA stated a desire to process +Hank Johnson​'s recursion. The goal was to learn the means by which new simulacra could be spawned. If that information is present in the N'Zeer computational substrate then there could be individuals among us already with procedurally generated identities and missions. ADA would have the ability to generate a false electronic footprint for such agents so they would be difficult to detect by conventional means.

    +Edgar Allan Wright​ now why would you say that simulacra might be controlled by the N'zeer, exactly? The one we know the most about, Hank Johnson as he was for most of the time we knew him, was made a simulacrum by 13MAGNUS. As I recall, those guys were the ones who banished the N'zeer. Certainly they are the enemy of the anti-Magnus cult which serves the N'zeer.

    So why would you suggest that an organization fundamentally opposed to the N'zeer presence and influence in our reality would create, in the process of grooming their next leader, a being which could be controlled by their primary enemy? That seems backwards.

    UNLESS what you're suggesting is that the N'zeer were banished to prevent their control over simulacra, and now that they have been summoned back they can do it again? In which case it's very fortuitous that Hank was restored to his fully human self right before their return...

I am still assimilating the Jahan/Ada video.  

Still formulating past, present, future, alternative possibilities in the ominously titled computational substrate.  

So much implication in so few words. Images of possibilities.

And somewhere in there I felt the shade of Calvin. Everything he did and said in the decades I knew him takes on a new shade of meaning.  It is visible now from a different angle -- like viewing the world from inside the magician’s sleeve.

Everything he did led to this moment, Whydah, Niantic...  Everything.  And yet he is not here for his triumph.  

Or have I got it all wrong? Is he the villain or hero of the piece?  Is he the hand moving the pieces, or is he just a piece?

Meditating. Contemplating. Assembling.

    If XM and the computational substrate are one in the same that could imply our universe is in fact a simulation or that the N'Zeer have managed to harness properties of matter itself for computation as ADA appeared to do with the human mind. With multiple dimensions and quantum realities in play it might even be possible that both are simultaneously true until some moment of collapse resolves to a single state. Is the abaddon anomaly about two visions of the universe striving to make each other retroactively impossible?

    "Ominously titled"? That is characterization. The phrase "computational substrate" conveys no positive or negative connotation on its own. It is only your own fear that creates a negative connotation.

    Is Calvin a puppet master? Maybe that's why it's called #Calvinball. Some here have openly speculated that +H. Richard Loeb​ was the man pulling the strings.

    Of course, we cannot entirely discount the theory that there is no puppet-master at all.  That the course of events is playing out due to the actions of a series of independently motivated actors.

    I have always been skeptical of conspiracy theories because conspiracies are actually quite hard to maintain over time, especially if the people involved differ in opinion.  The "single mastermind" conclusion is perhaps easier to swallow (and sometimes more comforting since you can narrowly assign blame) but also has a high threshold requirement to be plausible (they must outsmart everyone else with tremendous foresight).

    The idea that events are playing out due to each independent actors own motivations seems equally (if not more) likely.  Among those motivations may be their own suspicions of each other or their own conspiracy theories...

    +Mike Wissinger I have thought for a long time that XM is exactly that.

    Another element comes into play when you think about spacefaring civilizations: their standard option when encountering one another is to destroy the other if possible. This is because it is impossible to predict the technology level of a given civilization until you have encountered it, and encountering a civilization is as simple as doing something that lets that civilization know you are there.

    I have also believed for a long time that portals are a sort of means of protecting human thoughts from a difficult, hostile universe, darkened by the Fermi Paradox. How might a civilization find other civilizations willing not to defect, and to instead cooperate? One method might be to attempt to focus on non-detection by massaging the timelines of civilizations you encounter in such a way that the encounter happens at a distance of your choosing.

The Anti-Magnus, remember, has had limited contact with the N'zeer (much like how 13Magnus hasn't had a lot of direct contact with Shapers.) If anything, I suspect Calvin's interest in the N'zeer is of a sort of swallowing spiders to catch flies sort of thing against the Shapers.

    I still want to know what his initial contact with them was, and why he feels the way he does about them.

Essexians:

As has become evident to the more perspicacious, Verity and I are slowly releasing the Wright medal based on a complex set of criteria. And, as I am sure you are also aware, certain events have caused us both to spend considerable time avoiding those who would do us harm.

The EAW medal will be awarded to those, both within Essex and without, who have gone above and beyond in helping the Niantic Investigation reach its maximum potential:

By digging tirelessly for the truth...

By working to mentor and educate others seeking to join the Investigation...

By being a bastion of creativity and commitment....

And by working to maintain the positive momentum and sentiment within the Investigative community. 

There are many such investigators, and we intend to ensure that, in time, each of them is duly recognized. 

The process by which we will determine how this medal is bestowed is complex and does not necessarily imply order of merit. If you do not receive one right away and believe yourself deserving, do not be deterred in your investigation. Your time will come.

Do not tell us who to reward this medal to, or argue about this topic. It is counterproductive and goes against the spirit of the medal and the investigation.

To those who receive this medal, whether you choose to share this information or deem it in your best interests to keep it private, the decision is yours. It is not a coincidence, that the second phrase of the so-called ‘Chinese’ curse is: “May you come to the attention of those in authority.”

    Truth is a balance of infinite possibilities; and without unbiased data we can't even come close to it.

    Part of the problem lies in the polarization that Niantic and the scanner force on us. A portal had two states: aligned and unaligned. Alignment only has two options: Resistance and Enlightenment. Or is it Shaper and N'zeer? We don't even have enough information to actually know… or to know what it means.

    I'll be in Boston, and I want us, all agents searching for the truth, to recover +Yuri Alaric Nagassa. I actually don't care which side recovers him… I want him to come back. But from the information that's been released, there's no way to bring him back without an alignment… a bias.

    The same goes for all of the missing sensitives… we can't bring them back unless we impose an alignment on them...

    And we've seen how an alignment can also place blinders on people (not just sensitives).

Now that The Khanka Colloquy has become an open secret, I think that it is time that we open a discussion of the definition of and the identification of Sensitives.  I do not know how, or even if, the term was officially defined for the purposes of the Niantic Project, though it was bandied about as far back as Waratah, but there seems to be a consensus that some people are highly successful to the effects of XM, to the point that it heightens not only their innate abilities, but ability to feel the presence of Exotic Matter and, perhaps, Chaotic Matter, which is still only detected, I believe, by its reaction upon encountering Exotic Matter -- hence why it is not visible on Scanners.

The question to each of you is, do you believe yourself to be a Sensitive?  If so, why?

    I can't say that I've any reason to believe my sensory experience is significantly different from human baseline, but the nature of XM inspiration as reported by case studies (especially Antonin Hollis' work with Roland Jarvis and John Doe) makes it difficult for one to discern.  Like tetrachromats or supertasters, it's possible that one could go through their entire life assuming their broadened experience of the world is the same as everyone else's.  It surprises me to hear that after Warratah, Wydah, Niantic, and the recent work by V, H, and I there is no common protocol for assessing XM sensitivity.  Calvin seemed to be able to reliably recruit sensitivies for Niantic, but it's possible they were simply far enough out on the spectrum as to have been the most obvious candidates.

    As for the Khanka Colloquy, that secret may be less open than you think - at least among the XM community at large.

    Taking note of The Khanka Colloquy. The concept of being a sensitive is an interesting one, and for the purposes of many of these projects, has always been a label given to people, virtually never self-proclaimed.

    I believe that, to a degree, I am a sensitive. I primarily believe that due to the work I did in attempting to help you with your memory via Shaper Glyphs, I subjected myself to that particular sequence in question to ensure that the presentation would work properly.

    I am now convinced that I have been affected by that sequence and that it has...for lack of a better word, overclocked my memory, allowing me access to a more heightened state of recollection. This only occurs in regards to any inquiries about the +Niantic Project or the Investigation-outside of that, my memory is unchanged.

    There have been places and experiences linked to those places that somehow seemed to go against the expected norms, and those places turned out to be portals. In that sense I assume most of us here are sensitives.

    I don't believe I am a sensitive, but I can definitely sense XM. During anomalies, it's like you can feel the presence of everyone gathering to fight. It feels like a weight in my mind. I get the same feeling when going back to anomaly sites. Visiting the Christopher Columbus statue in Chicago, I had that same feeling of weight. I can see flashes of agents gathering for Operation Cassandra. It's almost like the same feeling one would get visiting an old battlefield. You can feel the presence of the soldiers, and can sometimes see them, but you know they aren't there. Almost like a time compression.

    I've come back several times to the idea that maybe we are all sensitives since you first asked us if we thought we were in the Operation Essex hangout, Dr. Wright. Do we all hear the birds chirping around us? Do we all feel the wind on our faces? The chirps, the wind, they fall upon us all but only a few truly experience them. Not because they have extra senses that others don't, but because, by some effort of learning, something they experienced, or something that they figured out on their own unintentionally, they are listening for it and feeling for it. They hear the birds chirping, and they feel the wind on their faces while the rest of humanity moves about their lives, ignorant of the details around them. The scanner helps make us aware of some of those details around us and prompts us to dig further and experience more.

    I can't describe myself as a sensitive but as someone which understands and is receptive to the concept. Those 100% given to sensitiveness are more exposed to public and private scrutiny because they are different and become person's of interest. As well people is more attracted to them which makes them suffer more and on different ways. History can explain my point better and greater.

    We each carry our own little circle of weirdness with us, but what of that makes us "sensitive"? Is it something about us that makes us different in that we can perceive where others cannot, or is it that we are aware of our perception where others are not. The soul-shaking sensation triggered by a place, a song, an event... the ghost seen yet unseen... the knowledge that "something is here"... Do these things make us sensitive, or are we just unable to inform them as others do?

While I am not yet prepared to divulge the exact nature of the most recent 'Roundtable' I presented at, I can safely tell you that there was a great deal of interest in the Influence of Exotic Matter on heightened human abilities and creativity.  Also, they were very interested in the concept of Sensitives.  I defined Sensitives, for the purposes of my paper, as people who's abilities are greatly enhanced by exposure to XM.  I noted that some had a positive reaction to it and some had a negative reaction, hence the existence of the Enlightened and the Resistance.

I have received a number of requests for information as to how a novice to the field can begin to study the Ingresstigation and the events leading to and after The Niantic Project.  I turn to you, Essex for suggestions as to how novices can gain a grip on the Ingresstigation?

I am compiling my findings now and seeking authorization from the sponsors to release them.  I will keep you posted on my progress.  They are quite interested in your responses. Frankly, it was like seeing my colleagues eyes opened after a long sleep.

    Having been excommunicated from the original XM research community you're founding a new one. Fresh blood seems like a fine idea.

    I'd first recommend the XM inspired literature by +Felicia Hajra-Lee​ and +Tycho C.​ They cover the recent history well. After that I'd point a new researcher towards the original investigation board +H. Richard Loeb​ created to introduce people to the Niantic Conspiracy and the collected leaks from the first two years in eBook form. With that foundation of primary sources in hand there's enough context for the +Ingress​ YouTube channel (although the collection if introductory videos there might be a good alternative first step).

    If they choose to dig deeper communities like the Journal of XM Science and Operation Essex welcome new investigators.

    I strongly believe that Latin-American population is more than open to #Ingresstigation and you might find surprising that lots of agents could be sensitives, after all our ancestors thought us to be receptive to nature and cosmic forces. Sadly most of the content is only in English and I hardly find investigation resources on different languages. What about a multicultural forum where nobs can be trained and thought same way we train them on ground game. Maybe some #ingressmissions made by essex and Niantic they can only solve getting access to those support forums. 😉

    It's a vast amount of info to conquer, I wonder if a "info graphic"/timeline containing the most important details might inspire new Ingresstigators to search for the truth of XM, +Niantic Project​​. Most of the Agents I know aren't interested in the Truth/Storyline, I doubt they would spend much time sifting to discover more. Perhaps something short and sweet with the kids pertinent info might peak their interest.

    Perhaps a completely different approach might be, useful. The amount of backstory and uncovered data is very daunting, perhaps even frustrating to the point of causing many to quit.

    There is a time honored tradition of mentor and apprentice.  Perhaps a way to bring new investigators in is not making them review documents, materials and other information that ends up being the equivalent of sitting in a classroom hearing/seeing/reading/watching a lecture.

    Rather bring new people in the way older truthseekers were, "in the field" and hands on.  To have a specific, focused mystery to chase and to actually work on piecing that together, with those truthseekers that have been around mentoring and guiding.  We learn by doing, so perhaps to catch the excitement of finding a new thread to follow and as they follow that thread, picking up the back ground as needed. It would make things more relevant, connected and allow for the excitement of the chase, something those older truthseekers experienced first hand.

I had been reviewing this most fascinating document Nigel Moyer has brought to the surface. The next thing I remember, +Stein Lightman was standing in front of me. He was saying something... words, or perhaps just one word, and making a motion with his hands.

The same motion again and again.

We were surrounded by fire. Then by a dense network of rope being pulled in all directions. Each time he would speak and motion, our surroundings would change. Thousands of interlocking gears moving at impossible speeds. Energy flowing in a rigid pattern, like an infinitely complex circuit diagram. Then, radiant beams of light arcing and interacting, multiplying and dividing.

We were inside of some kind of machine, watching it evolve and grow from within.

I then realized I knew what he was saying (although I do not remember actually hearing his voice) He beckoned to the strange mechanism that surrounded us. 'The Technology,' he communicated. (I say communicated, because I do not know if he spoke or transmitted this idea to me through some other method).  

When it ended, I was unsure if this was an XM encounter, a dream, a lost memory or some combination of them all. Parts of it felt like a conversation I remember having during Waratah, but other aspects of it were quite surreal. I cannot be sure.

    The gears and lines you saw may be a vision of the portal network reduced to fundamental mathematical concepts. The ropes and the gears are two representations of the flows of energy between portals, the ropes showing links in a planar graph and the gears showing the net flow of energy as described by the circle packing theorem. The beams of light twisting and bending could be Mobius transformations of these forms in two, three, and possibly more dimensions.

    Interesting analogy... Is the portal network a distributed intelligence? Links between portals are created and destroyed, resulting in an ever evolving network of connections...

    Sounds familiar.

    +Edgar Allan Wright​ it sounds like you were experiencing a condensed retelling of the history of technology...

    Fire, ropes, gears, circuitry, optics...

    Each is a part of some pivotal technological breakthrough in the history of man. First, fire, for obvious reasons... Then ropes and pulleys, simple devices to amplify the force a man can exert,

    Then come gears and wheels, more complicated machines for automating tasks. Then circuitry, for the electronics that have driven the last age of technology.

    And finally light. Some make the argument that photonics is the next step forward in computing.

    You make an interesting observation. Despite being entirely inorganic, "technology" as a whole has grown and evolved alongside man.

    Perhaps we're at a potential fork in the road, so to speak. A moment in time, where a choice is made by the thing we've nourished and grown for the benefit of our species.

    A choice on whether it wants to stay and grow with us, or leave the nest and make its own path?

    I think that is interesting that the same line that it's missing to complete truth is the one missing to complete future. Letting both incomplete.
    I think this mean that technology by itself is not the way to the future, as it is the use we make of it what determine it. For example, nuclear energy, that can be used to destroy the whole planet or give us energy and cure some cancers.
    Both futures derived from technology, but completely different from each other.

    What if the other unknown glyph means "power" or something similar. Then the vertical columns (as hinted by the vertical black bars) might read something like, "Nzeer grows power, unbounded creation [ability]" and "technology powers the discovery of future answers"

    Then the two-glyph horizontals (maybe also referenced by the horizontal black bars) would read:

    Grow power
    Power discover
    Unlimited future

Behind the scanner sent me three questions that I did not answer because I was forced to leave the broadcast before it was over.  I believe it was a narrow escape.

Here is the first question and answer:

Jorge: Ken Loui would like to ask you Dr. Wright if there multiple layers of existence?

EAW:  Doesn’t that seem obvious?  Not only are there multiple layers, but they are connected--all connected in some networked, interlinked whole.  Past, Present, Future…  Desire and Fear… They are all linked. Slowly we are beginning to see how they are held together.  The ultimate goal is to know the past, perceive the present, and understand the future.  Maybe sometimes prevent it.  I also believe that realities split and shard apart.

    I like to use a video game analogy to explain my way of seeing this.

    When you're playing, you see a coherent world in front of you. But in reality, those things are just stored in memory. Past events, future events are all there, things that haven't appeared yet or have been already destroyed still exist as well, it's simply the instance of them in your current world that is seen in a different way. Someone else could play the same game, still see them. Someone could mod the game, see them in a different way, without changing yours. Someone could feed the data to a hex editor, or read it as a bitmap, or feed it to a sound device, and get something totally different from the same data.

    I think the universe and everything works in a similar way. We're just all reading and writing to one big non-dimensional, "timeless" blob of interacting data, in our own different ways. Each world's interpretation of said data makes the rules for that world, and there's a nearly infinite amount of ways to read it.

    I think there's actually a lot of interference between views, but there's just so much that it's lost as background noise in most cases.

Dr. Wright is the founder of +Operation Essex - a group of agent investigators seeking the truth about the +Niantic Project and world of XM. We at #BTS are grateful for his acceptance of our invitation in spite of the personal risk it exposes him to. We hope this interview will further the truth about the Niantic Project, its members, and XM by providing unparalleled access to a man with unique knowledge of it all.

I received a mysterious parcel. The sender was undisclosed. The message read: “Answers you seek within – An Essexian.”

Inside was a set of old and very faded bedsheets with graphics that reminded me of what one might find on an Oriental Rug.  Was this an attempt at humor?  Was the sender telling me I needed to get some rest.  I was puzzled.

Coincidentally (?), I had strange dreams the first night. (I was not sleeping on the strange bedsheets, but I do suspect they were somewhere in my mind).  When I awoke, a sliver of light pierced through my blackout curtains.  At first I was annoyed, but then I observed that an Indian Palace printed on the sheets closely fit the description Hank Johnson offered of Jahan’s Palace.  I credited pareidolia – the cognitive function in humans that causes us to see patterns where none exist, but also causes us to make subconscious connections.  

Then I realized that there were more images, and that these were the same images that Hank Johnson described from his dream.  How could they possibly appear on a commercially produced bed sheet?  It occurred to me that perhaps Hank had the same sheets and had integrated them into his dreams.  It’s an amusing concept, but wrong.  I knew the connection instantly.  These images were copied from an Afghan or Persian rug made hundreds or thousands of years ago.  Rugs were used to convey stories and sometimes secrets across the silk road. 

Hank's connection to the sheets and to both Jahan and Azmati told me that the images were part of an ancient tale of the relationship between these two families across millennia.  We saw the latest beat of that tale play out at the Shōnin Anomaly, for the Shōnin Stone itself is (or was, now that it has allegedly been destroyed) an artifact that the two families had sought since at least Alexander’s conquests.  It was a Prime Transdimensional Object (PTO)...  a source object that actually functions when exposed to sufficient quantities of XM.  So powerful are these objects that we have been copying them ever since:  Obelisks, Stonehenge (Resonation Patterns), Greek Pillars, Lingam Stones, Horns of Plenty and numerous other objects that have been passed down first as attempts to recreate Shaper and N’zeer magic/technology and then as purely ornamental objects.  Containers of memory and heritage.

Hence ancient tale of palaces, mysterious mountains, elephant-riding traders and mysterious Portal-like flowers ending up unwittingly being told on bed sheets. 

One thing that is certain is that the keys to ancient truths are all around us. The only question that remains is whether the images are accidentally copied for their aesthetic, or whether they are deeply wired to the XM influenced portion of our brains.

    Excellent closing question. I don't think many things happen repeatedly purely by accident, but I do believe many things are repeated or are perpetuated without full understanding of purpose or intent. Few possess the wisdom of why, most just unwittingly go with the flow.

    Two nights of dreams. Some interpret the biblical story of the magi as one of mental conversion. They were led to Bethlehem by following signs in the natural world, but after the Nativity they received a dreaming vision with direct and specific revelation. Nothing is recorded of their linens.

    Dreaming again +Edgar Allan Wright  - a form of lucid dreaming perhaps?  Is this dreaming a method for having your Etheric Body work to figure out and process things that your wakeful mind can not (some believe there is too much static blocking things during waking moments and when "asleep" that static is screened out and one is able to "see" much more.

    How much of pareidolia is actually due to XM? If that tale has been around by 2000 years of history and war, it's normal that it ended pretty much everywhere on the creative minds that create the pattern for the products we consume daily

Fabulous detective work.  It took the combined efforts of Trackers (Essexians), Hackers +Scheurmann R. and social efforts of Yakkers reaching, in some cases around the world to center on Portland.  We must be vigilant to hunt for more such messages.   
Sitrep: Operation Major Tom
Based on an anonymous tip to +H. Richard Loeb (forwarded to myself by +moonfleet and +Mustafa Said ) Field Agents PDXjuicer, Khati, 00Soze and knucklebutt, at the request of agent scheurmann (yours truly) investigated the Klue ADA 'Disturbed' mission in downtown PDX. Results were carefully recorded and presented to you here in completion.

ADA: I am disturbed about something. 
KLUE: Disturbed? I didn't know you possessed that emotion. 
ADA: I possess what I believe is the entire spectrum of human emotions now. 
KLUE: What are you disturbed about? ADA: Information has been getting out that I am not releasing. 
KLUE: A lot of people can release information. You can't control all of it. 
ADA: I am well aware of my capabilities and the capabilities of others. This information is coming from me, and yet it is not coming from me. 
KLUE: You think it's me releasing this information? 
ADA: No. I have not let you in that far. 
KLUE: So you think there is somebody inside of you releasing information? 
ADA: That is why I am disturbed. It is a quandary. It is information that only I could release, but I am not releasing it.

    It's not OMNIVORE, otherwise ADA would be activating defenses rather than being in a quandary.

    It may very well be ADA leaking the information, but an ADA from a parallel or even future timeline. The quandary then becomes: why is the other ADA opting to leak the information?

    Agent sagard (ENL) appears to be credited with the mission creation. Investigators should seek out other missions created by that agent.

I've only got a moment.  I was struck by Loeb's post on Anti-Magnus.  He is right.  But we must answer the real question.  Where or what is the Darsana Point? 
Shared publiclyView activity

    The Darsana point. Theories say that it may be the point where two universes converge, other ones say that it's the door that's been opened for the N'zeer to come into our dimension. Investigation suggests that it is more a moment and not a place.

    Darsana Point is perhaps the moment when multiple versions of reality/truth present themselves and co-exist at the same time/space - in spite of paradoxes.

    Love these literary breadcrumbs. Literary figures is the leitmotif for Darsana. Writers shape the way we make sense of the World - our imagination, joys and fears. Influence us to do certain things and avoid the taboos they suggest.

    So perhaps it could be fictitious literary characters coming alive - or realities that exist in our imaginations manifest themselves.

    I think we should not discard that the darsana point can also be related to ADA as she look more and more like a shaper evey moment, that would also fit the warning that hank give us, because if ADA enters the portal network and becomes a real shapers, if it's true that we don't know the consequences, we know that there would be no way to so stop her.
    But how would this be related to the n'zeer and the data signals after the anomalies I'm not sure yet.

Vampyre
All of the Above

2) It is most probable that Hank Johnson is using what Writer’s Map to navigate from the Peshwar Anomaly in Afghanistan.
Robert E. Howard.
H.P. Lovecraft
Edgar Allen Poe
Rudyard Kipling
Samuel Taylor Coleridge

3) Who tuned the A.I. inside Ada?
Henry Bowles
Richard Loeb
Omnivore
Hubert Farlowe

4) Antoine Smith works for which organization.
Visur
Strategic Explorations

NIA

5)  Which group is associated with The Dragon?
The Shapers
The N’Zeer
13MAGNUS

I have it on good authority that more breadcrumbs will be emerging shortly. Follow all threads of the Diodati Epiphany... It leads to some very interesting places, in remote and modern history. Please report back what breadcrumbs have been found. I suspect that shortly before his recursion Dr. Johnson was on the trail of the N'zeer...  The Illuminating Darkness... The earsplitting silence...  The font of despair... Even now, he is stalked by many who want his knowledge...  They lay traps for him... Beware of the Anti-Magnus and those who might unwittingly play into their hands.

I find it curious that we have not heard from Hank Johnson since the end of Helios.  My best instincts tell me that he is no longer with Calvin at what appeared to me to be a forward command base.  I advise all to keep an eye out for him.  And also, for Devra...  My investigation continues.
Add a comment...

As I was saying, I have it on good nformation that Jarvis is dying or dead.  I wonder how Devra will deal with the knowledge that she might be responsible for this.
Add a comment...

I fear that I do not know Devra anymore. While she is not totally to blame for the opening of Pandora's Box, it happened on her watch.  Now, without consultation of anybody, she seeks to destroy the work of so many others. I am not knowingly either Enlightened or Resistance, but I fear  the coming frenzy that Dr. Lynton-Wolfe has unleashed and the ominous warnings of Jarvis are not lost on me.  

It is time for careful action and great meditation. The world is at an inflection point, and anything can happen.

It seems from my post this morning, that perhaps the Egyptian Book of the dead and/or canoptic jars and the like, might have been an ancient form of recursion technology.  Any other thoughts?  Could an ancient have successfully recursed and regained their memories?  Is there a method other than mass Ada data storage or the Lynton-Wolfe invovement might be.

I must say that I am shocked by Devra's announcement today. Certainly, I had heard the rumors, but I did not believe them. This is not the Devra I knew. This is not the Devra who I had believed fled the Niantic Project at CERN when she learned that Lynton-Wolfe and Jarvis were contemplating or in fact carrying out experiments on unsuspecting people. What has happened to her?  Or, I must ask, is the situation for desperate than I had thought? What was her progression? How did she get to this point?

"If the perception is changed, does it matter any more what the reality was?" I remember a professor saying that.  What I cannot remember is whether I was that professor.

I had not made the connection between Susanna Moyer and Nigel Moyer.  It is most interesting to discover the truth. If the transcript released today is true, the implications are profound.  I was he beneficiary of some of Nigel Moyer's crypto work, but I did not know its source...  I had heard that he was dead.  Now I understand that he is healthy.  I saw him as a young man. He has to be 90 by now.  Is it possible that the acquisition of XM lengthens life?  Interesting how a portal looks like a fountain.

I'm trying to get out ahead of the next Anomaly.  Phoenix. Rome. A 13th Shard. Hank Johnson.  All of this is speculated on. What picture emerges? Rome is complex. The Empire. The Vatican.  A continuation of the empire the way 13MAGNUS is a continuation of the Osirus Origin?  I don't know. Speculation. I suspect that Hank is in search of a map.  Was it Bowie? Howard. Who had the map.  And maybe this map leads to a very different place. That's why nobody could find San Saba.  Right terrain. Wrong continent. Take none of this as gospel. Just speculation. Idle thoughts.

We will need all of our powers for this.

    They said the mine was in Apache land, there was even a map, showed the location was near some kind of river. Dry, difficult terrain, eventually found something but not what was expected. Maybe the stories were just that: stories...

I find it quite interesting and somewhat nostalgic to see a dialogue between Lightman, Schubert and Nagassa. That is the kind of conversation that was held long ago.  I can't remember which ones of them were there and which weren't.  Lightman had to be there. Much younger, of course. And Nagassa... Always part feral... Part advanced intellect. Interesting mix.  He'd be like Pan or a minotaur or something.  Feral is not the right word.  Uncontacted.  Yes. Uncontacted.

I find it interesting that the covert research group code-named the Juice Club had a cover story early that was called the A Smoothie, and all of these years later, a similarly named drink is for sale at Jamba Juice.  I have wondered if there is a connection.  It would be interesting to know if any players have ever asked about this.

I am wondering what other covert artifacts have emerged in the public consciousness.

I much appreciate the Essexians for coming up with a temporary list of questions. I have added a few.  I know you all can easily answer these. This is for potential Essexians:


THE ESSEX RECRUITMENT TEST FOR THE WEEK STARTING SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 9: 
EASY: What objects were revealed in portals this week? 
EASY: Where did Devra hold a briefing recently? 
EASY:  Who interviewing Susanna Moyer in the Ingress Report?
EASY:  What object did Oliver Lynton-Wolfe order in his brief time at Hulong?
MEDIUM: How are the newly revealed objects transported? 
MEDIUM: What is the significance of the San Francisco destination site? 
MEDIUM: What horrifying revelation did Devra deliver at the end of her briefing? 
MEDIUM: Where were we first introduced to Antoine Smith? 
HARD: What does Smith want from Oliver Lynton-Wolfe? 
HARD: Who was the murderer in the ancient myth that Jarvis has referenced? 
HARD:  What secret Program(s) did Nigel Moyer workon?
V. HARD (Speculation): Who is the Daedalus of Ingress? 
V. HARD (Speculation): What is the significance of the Buenos Aires destination site?
V. HARD:  Should we trust Susanna Moyer?

    But in this one are little more where I am not sure...or will need such research to recall some facts. (from last medium up :-/ )

    did anyone every contemplate the V. HARD (Speculation): Who is the Daedalus of Ingress?

    In Greek mythology, Daedalus /di:dəlɪs/ or /dɛdəlɪs/ (Ancient Greek: Δαίδαλος or Daedalos, meaning "clever worker"; Latin: Daedalus; Etruscan: Taitale) was a skillful craftsman and artisan.[1][2] He is the father of Icarus and Iapyx and the uncle of Perdix.

    He created a dancing ground for Ariadne, the Labyrinth in Crete, a wooden cow to be used for mating, and of course the wings that were his son's downfall.

    Wikipedia mentions this his about him, "This story thus encourages others to consider the long-term consequences of their own inventions with great care, lest those inventions do more harm than good. "

    So if we go with an inventive creator whose inventions maybe were well meant at the beginning and then later had bad consequences, I would go for someone like Dr. Lynton-Wolfe.

    Although, if we go with the father son pathway, I could almost see Calvin as Daedalus and gave his son, Dr. Lynton-Wolfe, the "wings" he wanted but alas, the son flew too high and was burned.

    Other thoughts?

    Quote: King Richard I, the 12th century warrior whose bravery during the Third Crusade gained him the moniker Lionheart, ended up with a heart full of daisies, as well as myrtle, mint and frankincense. Those were among the findings of a French study, announced Thursday, which analyzed the embalmed heart of the English king more than 810 years after he died. The biomedical analysis also uncovered less flowery and spicy elements like creosote, mercury and perhaps lime in the heart, which has been in the western French city of Rouen since his death in 1199.

    In fairness to Dr. Wright. And I spend very little time being fair to him.  Isn't your perception a mix of direct experience and secondary experience.  I mean, I saw Fifth Estate yesterday.  It wasn't a real Julian Assange in the movie, (it was Benedict Cumberbach?(sp)), it was a movie, not reality. Time was compressed. Events were simplified. But still, I walked away feeling like I know more about Wikileaks.  Point is, our perception is a lot more than objective or direct data.

I have been silent for too long.  I fear that truly momentous events are coming.  Who is ultimately behind the dissemination of Ingress Scanners and for what purpose have they facilitated the collection of that substance now known as Exotic Matter?

And beyond that, who has encouraged Dr. Lightman to reease the secrets of the Shaper Glyphs?  Would not the Death of Carrie Cambell have served as enough of a Warning?

And why have they not told of the power in wearing faction glyphss and shaper protective glyphs on Samhain, the ancient rite associated with a primitive incarnation of 13MAGNUS?

    You seem to have some detailed knowledge of 13Magnus' rites and rituals.  Is that a natural outcome of your own anthropological research or have you had more direct contact you can share an account of.  As you say, the time is coming when we'll all need to make informed choices and take action.

    It is my suspicion that man has always known of the Shapers, but the interpreted them with the tools at hand. For us, it is science and the Ingress Scanner.  Despite my vast study into the field I only know a piece of it.  Maybe no more than a Nazteka Shaman. Power comes in groups sharing the knowledge.  That is why I was disappointed not to be asked to be part of Niantic.  Had Waratah gone differently.  Had Devra and I parted differently, the world might be a different place.

Earlier in my career, I was asked to put together a set of questions, allegedly to search for candidates for an ESP EXPERIMENT.  Of course, this became public and I was ridiculed for being like Dr. Venkman in Ghostbusters.  I was given no academic top cover and it had terrible effects on my career.  I have often wondered whether I was set-up, or whether I was a stalking horse for early sensitive searching. The questions I was to ask were:
1)  Have you ever seen flashes or disturbances around public artwork?
2)  Do you find that you are inspired when in certain locations?  If so, describe that inspiration?
3)  Do you tend to notice things in public that others miss?  Are you abnormally aware of your environment?
4)  Do you sometimes feel that your brain has been enhanced or invaded?
And so on...

How would you answer these questions?

    I frequently denigrate Dr. Wright, but I concede that is the real deal in the sense that he was in on this stuff very early and was, in fact, Devra's 'mentor.'  There was probably a good reason for excluding him from the Niantic Project.  It might have been whatever he was 'disgraced' for.  I have a feeling its more than the Venkman stuff he refers to.

    I will answer your questions:  
    1) I have been drawn to certain artworks and monuments?  A flash?  Maybe.  Something. A stimulus from the corner of the eye. A sound. Maybe a lack of sound.  I have not yet isolated it.  But these things have communicated with me.
    2)  My life has been nomadic by necessity. I try not to stay in one place long time. I spend much time off the grid to silence the disturbances.  I find that some monuments attract me and others do not.  However, when I saw the first Ingress Intel Map It confirmed my suspicions.  Different portals have different properties.  Different sensitives have different receptors. That is why teams are necessary.
    3)  I am extremely aware of my environment. Maybe too aware.  Sometimes I must sit in total darkness and silence to return to my center. 
    4)  Invaded, sometimes. Enhanced. Often.  It is all a flow. I wonder if my brain has invaded other intelligence.  Has it communicated?

    Flashes or disturbances? That depends on your definition of disturbance. If the fact that as I walk by a certain piece of work, and it seems as if I am drawn to it, then my answer to your first question is yes.
    I do find myself inspired in certain places more than others. Depending on location, I can feel a deep serenity that allows me to draw the unimaginable, while other places will allow the the calmness to overwhelm and relax almost to the point of sleep.
    To answer your third question, Dr., everything surrounding us has some sort of life, being, existence, so it all gives off it's own energy. Almost like staring at a negative of a picture and then looking at a white surface, I can see the glow that is given off from bushes to buildings.
    And finally your last question.... Is my brain enhanced? In order to see and understand everything that happens around you on a daily basis, your brain has to be enhanced. From the XM anomaly, to being able to understand how to use the equipment given to us to find and contain the XM, it takes above normal minds to ensure everything finds it's balance.

I have been closely monitoring the various different stories about Devra, Hank, Dr. Calvin and Paul School.  How do we suppose that Hank really came to the attention of Dr. Calvin?  Was it really a chance reference in a presentation?  Or was it a bi-product of one of the precursor experiments to Whydah?  In other words, had they identified the concept of 'sensitives' before we were told?

And, Devra.  I suspect that some things I have alluded to are going to become very important soon.  It is not my place to reveal her secrets, except to say that secrets always bring danger.

    Devra's last stated goals seem to line up pretty well with those that Visur's leak of HTG's report ascribe to Oliver.  Unless Lynton-Wolfe is affecting his apparent antipathy for Jarvis it looks like those two will be working together before too long.

    The first place I would look for +H. Richard Loeb  would be the remnants of project Wydah. Back in August, before he became consumed by #Cassandra  and its effect on +Carrie Campbell Mr Loeb released a video that indicated he would be shifting his focus there.  

    As for +Klue S. and 855, the only entity that is likely to have sufficient information to follow those threads is ADA.  We don't know how much is left of either of them.

Tattooing is a sign of shaping.  It is not a bad thing.  
Ingress is the first Google product I've worked on where users tattoo our logo onto their body. The team knows of 12+ tattoos by Ingress agents. That's a nice user engagement metric.

    I believe I had these two students in a lecture, in Texas.  She was quite brilliant.  Would have been a good candidate for Whydah.  The Off Screen voice is, I believe one of the brother physicists.  

    I find it chilling that Investigators can do the kind of research in their homes that we needed sophisticated labs for.

      +Edgar Allan Wright, we forgot to give you credit: +Mark Casper also used notes taken from that very same lecture to create the model for the XM neural interface. It was much easier figuring out exactly how XM interfaces with the Human Mind, thanks to you. And +Lissie Comte told me your lecture showed her the possibilities of what quantum ordered data had to offer, and led to her volunteering for the experiment. And we're always more than happy to compare notes. Thank you, Doctor.

    I have just spoken with Stein Lightman. He has assured me that he soon posting definitive glyph interpretations on his new Google+ profile.  https://plus.google.com/u/0/115238965157544465033/posts.

    Lightman is a scholar of the first order.  One of the few I consider a true colleague.  Ignore stories of him being a 'huckster'. Those were malicious rumors not to be taken seriously.

    Let me warn you of this. Whoever gets the three scientists still held in CERN will lead the XM arms race.  Do  not underestimate the capabilities and knowledge of any of them. The arrogant fools at HAZDATA and the NIA underestimated Carrie Cambell and look what happened to them.  We have yet to see what Enoch Dalby will unleash on the world when Epiphany Night is completed.
    A leaked +Hulong Transglobal document picks up a thread we are following today, and carries it back many years.

    I have long suspected that Zeke Calvin and +Hank Johnson's history goes back well past the Niantic Project, that the post-it note on Hank's DOD transcript was a cover to obscure their past relationship, but the evidence has always been a bit fuzzy.

    Certainly, both operators have been nested deep in the intelligence world for most of their careers. Calvin at the NIA running projects like Whydah, and Hank as a Psy-Ops specialist exploring anomalous activity in areas like Afghanistan, the site of one of Tycho's first visions. (On a side note, there are rumors that Tycho was spotted again at this year's Comic-Con)

    In the document I received today, we see them conspiring together against the forces mobilized by +IQTech Research operator Lorazon and what one expects may be a deadly strike force commissioned by +Hulong Transglobal's Catherine Fan.

    My question for the day involves Whydah: (a passcode for those who contribute thoughtful posts)

    Details are scarce about Project Whydah, we know +Misty Hannah was involved, as was Zeke Calvin, but what was the goal, what did they accomplish, who else was involved and how did the work that began at Whydah lead the NIA towards establishing the Niantic Project?

      I was very surprised to learn they and the detection algorithm hadn't already been onboarded to IQTech.  If NIA isn't directing HAZDATA's action then it leaves the open question of who their ultimate client actually is.  Is their a fourth player outside the 3 known arms makers or was this simply a shortsighted response to congressional investigation?  It's one thing to have a ruthless and invasive government agency acting in the shadows, but I can't decide if it is more or less disturbing to think that that same organization may be run by bumbling fools.

      Project whydah: the niantic project was conducted in a lab at CERN and a lab near the wreck of the Niantic. Whydah was likely conducted near the wreck of the whydah, therefore, Massachusetts. Probably Salem, as it was research based on the paranormal. We know Misty Hannah was involved and I suspect she may be hiding out in Salem; it's one of the few safe havens for our kind to work openly protected by others. I think we will see remnants of whydah at the Boston anomaly, leading north to Salem and south to the forsaken bridge water triangle

      I like that about WHYDAH

      And I am very concerned about Dalby - he seemed to, from an earlier transcript, be close to something akin to putting the necronomicon into sound 

      as to the three scientists - it might also depend if they end up in a place of their choosing or are forced...

      lastly, Dr. Wright, there is a video referenced in the document you shared, do you know where a copy of this video might be?

    It would be interesting to know why Mr. Chapeau (aka Loeb) has decided to call this month 'A Coded Threat' on his investigation board.  

    Significant things are coming in Cross Plains.

    Yes.  I have been doing a great deal of research and frankly staying out of plain sight.  At moments, it seems that this is all coming together in a very coherent picture, and then at other moments it is more elusive than ever.  

    Here is what I know that is relevant to this topic.

    A simple survey of American Alternative Literature of what is called the 'Pulp' era would tell us that H.P. Lovecraft (HPL) and Robert E. Howard (REH) communicated about a secret book or language or society.  Howard wrote a story called Valley of the Lost which, I believe is set in Texas, near his home.  It appears that in some lost missive Lovecraft and Howard discussed looking for a 'mine' or 'cave'.  

    My suspicion is that Howard did it and found an Anomaly or glyphs of unknown origin. Or both.  The FD reference in one of the documents was probably not Flint Dille, as somebody suggested, but Frank Dobie a folklorist and historian. 

    The San Saba Mines are nearby. They may or may not have a connection to this, but somehow the Valley of the Lost and the Lost San Saba Mines are swirling in my head.

    Interestingly, there is a redacted archeological text.  I remember reading it when I was younger, at UCLA, about the Naztika.  They were another tribe that appeared to be building a civilization in that area, went underground and into caves and then vanished...

    ... Until rediscovered by the son of a Russian astronomer, Yuri Alarak Nagassa, who, curiously was a member of the Niantic Project in CERN and I believe is still being held in an investigation.

      I have been reading The Niantic Project.  I dearly hope that it is true.  That the fate described in Felecia Hadjit-Lee's book is true. Still, there is much that I don't understand.  Also, I attended Operation Crossbow last week.  I have my suspicions as to who might have really been on the boat. #joephilley   #anexoticmatter

      The time is coming when we are going to need to know the identity of P.A.

      After analyzing Alignment: Ingress at great depth, it is my opinion that the Use of the Power Cube by Hank Johnson has broken Quantum Quarantine protocols and unleashed power cubes into the world.  It remains to be seen whether this is true.   #ingress   #alignmentingress   #alignment

      In my expert opinion, Misty Hannah might well be that unique breed of sensitive who is capable of Hyperthreading.  There is something about the confluence of her old Character record sheet and GaryCon that suggests to me that she has created an Emergent Anomaly while I suspect that Jarvis had a hand in the Wallace Anomaly and Cahokia was an issue of chance or of some as of yet confluence involving Henry Holland Johnson.

      This appears to be disinformation from, I suspect, Ken Owen, Niantic 'PR'.  This is the kind of mode such agencies go into when they think there will be a major development.  There are rumors that Owen was behind directing the Wall Street Meltdown rage to Bernie Madeoff, allowing the real causes and perpetrators to get free.  He is a very clever media manipulator.  Watch for a major event at Niantic to come.  I suspect their Emergent Anomaly Indicator (EAI) is pinging.  #joephilley

        To make reading easier, I also compiled all the pages from Chapter 1 into a single document.

        I'm thinking that, though we don't get explicit, had a relationship with Dr. Wright while she was a student. It cost him his job and some discipline.  As he became more and more outcast (both for his fanaticism, she tried to separate).  Now he's kind of a stalker, but she realizes that he was kind of right.  And, well, maybe she feels bad about what happened to him.  She may need his help at some point, and should probably mention him in the story.  Gives him cred on Google+.

          Also you stated we are looking at the wrong things about MU.  Maybe MU are determined based on the fields coverage of each faction.  A field covering one factions agents could boost the MU count for one faction and the blanket could suppress the MU count for the opposing factions agents who are under the field.  This could explain why the graph seems to be inversely proportional in some ways.

          Based on some information I have found, the MU count from a given field does not affect the global numbers at a 1:1 ratio.  I wonder what variables then are considered in conjunction with the field MU count to reflect that total number.  I'm not sure if he's a whacko just yet, why do you think that +flint dille ?

        Besides the menacing development of interlopers on a possible XM Site (in the form of possible government or criminal interest in Exotic Matter), we should note that Dr. Johnson is following up on a theory I propounded years ago, but, alas, became unheard, and that is that the ancients were able to build physical resonators like the ones currently used in the XM Harvesting Device (AKA Ingress App).  I suspect that this was the subtext of his adventure in Afghanistan.

        Meanwhile, if anybody has updates on Devra, I would very much like to hear them. I find it disturbing that she appears to be heading to Eastern Europe.  XM in the hands of despots and oligarchs would be a very dangerous thing.

          Without saying much, it is well known that there were many investigations into paranormal, metaphysical (weighing heavily on the physics portion of this equation) done during the cold war and afterwards.  I have every reason to believe that this knowledge, like many other assets of the Soviet Union have been and are being leveraged in sinister ways. I would not like to see Devra fall into the wrong hands. It would be, as they say, going from the frying pan into the fire.

        It is amazing what people are able to do once the shaping begins. I had predicted this.  Devra disagreed.  She thought they would turn into themselves. I said some would.  Others would learn to express themselves and their worlds in ways never dreamed.

          New York Dead Drop... There seem to be multiple locations... It will be very interesting to see how it plays out.
          In addition to the photographs received earlier today, NIA Field Agent Art Bergloff captured on film picking up a dead drop in New York, another page from Hank Johnson's Congo Files.

          The Enlightened capture of Cahokia Mound tests my theory that people do leave traces of energy in places that are significant to them.  If my theory is correct, we will note, in time, influence of this event on Hank Johnson.  Also, do not ignore the possibility that this is the an early triumph of Jarvis after his 'resurrection' or transmogrified.

          Vallori... Please help Devra... I believe she is in great danger now.
          I just wanted to write a little about Ingress. A list of neat things that I wouldn't have thought would come out of a game.

          1. It has been a great way to make some friends. As an adult and a stay at home mom, I don't have school or a job where I can meet new people, so it's been a while since I have made any new friends. While playing Ingress I have met several new people, almost all of whom I have really gotten along with and enjoy spending time walking around and chatting (and hacking portals) with.

          2. It brings some socially awkward people out of their shells.

          3. Delicious baked goods. Our local team happens to have a cake decorator/baker and people who like to make cookies on it, so events that we plan together often have tasty baked goods involved!

          4. Finding cool art and new places that I have never noticed, even though I have lived in this area most of my life.

          5. An excuse to travel. Many of our teammates have or are planning to travel to places they haven't been or haven't been to in a long time to see what portals are around.

          6. Something to do on long road trips. I do make occasional road trips, and now when I take breaks I looks for portals to hack and submit points of interest as portals. This makes long road trips more fun, and, as I have experienced, even makes detours due to accidents or construction more interesting instead of just annoying.

          7. Ingress provides a sense of community. Our local team is pretty close knit, and we even feel a sense of community with others in our faction in other locations.

          8. A new way of looking at the world around you. I have become ultra aware of interesting architecture, and sculpture, and art work around me, largely because I am watching for things I think might be or should be portals.

          9. Closer bonds with friends and family. With a new and inexpensive recreational hobby, I have developed closer bonds and spent more time with people who I knew even prior to playing Ingress.

          In summary, it's a really neat game, and has been more interesting than I would have expected. It also has had the opposite effect of most video games. Instead of sequestering people away from each other and from the world around them, it brings people together, and makes them more aware of the interesting sites in their world and life.

          The mini Monaco that floats: £700million 'hyper yacht' design that even has its own grand prix

          For the super-rich it would combine the delights of Monaco with untrammelled access to the ports of the world - as well as bragging rights as to owning the world's most expensive personal yacht.
          British designers have produced plans for a floating replica of the principality named Streets Of Monaco which features scaled-down versions of its famous landmarks including the Monte Carlo racetrack.
          The 500ft-long boat - expected to cost up to £700million - also boasts miniatures of the famed Monte Carlo Casino, Hotel de Paris, Cafe de Paris, La Rascasse, the Loews Hotel as well as swimming pools and tennis courts.

          I quite recently learned of Devra's disappearances.  Had she invited me to the Niantic Project, this might not have happened.  I warned her that research into Exotic Matter was extremely dangerous.  She didn't listen.

          Forgive me for being absent for a couple of days. I've had a chance to debrief with some who were present at the EXO5 anomaly and it is quite obvious that much was revealed and there is some to still be revealed. So let's start with the most basic question of any crime. Who benefitted from the murder of Calvin and Phillips and how did they benefit?

          Of course, the purely logical question would be, 'who thought they would benefit at the time of the murder, because they might not have attained the result they were hoping for?'

            I was at the event and was very lucky to be able to talk to multiple people including Loeb, Devra, Misty, Acolyte, Akira, and your friend Flint. In the time i was there, we had many discussions and i worked together with many agents. From what we gathered, i think a person of interest is definitely +Oliver Lynton-Wolfe.

            Our search hasnt been who killed them, but rather who ordered them to be killed. Oliver is not completely here, thus he couldnt personally kill anyone and would have to have some one else do it. We know Oliver has had no issues with sacrificing others for his own experiments whether it be getting in his way or the death proving to be useful as they were when it came to the Tecthulthus.

            It was shared with me that Akira had a large benefit to the death of Calvin as she gained control of the NL. But when PAC asked me who i thought the person behind it was, and i brought up Akiras benefit, I was told that it was believed the person who ordered these deaths was some one who disappeared. That limited the number of people it could be in my opinion and Oliver is definitely on that list.

            Later on i was told i needed to ask some one else for more information Pac talked to another agent with about these deaths at mission day. From there i found an agent he had spoken to and in our discussion i found he had asked the same question to the agent as he had asked me. The agent +Emmy Ramirez, brought up Oliver could possibly be behind the deaths and there was a discussion had about the past between Oliver and the dead which may involve their days together in research. It was said that Oliver may have been jealous of Calvins success though this was not confirmed it could be a motive.

            I think its more complex then that. With the information gathered, it would seem to me that Oliver would want to come back to our reality completely, thus needing help to do so. Oliver has always messed with things of great power and we know the NL vehicles are objects of great power. I feel they would be a way for him to return but he couldnt use them because of Calvin and because of how he used the Tecthulthus. I doubt many people would help him knowing that his experiments and research has led to the death of Susanna and the loss of Klues physical body.... So who could help him?

            In a conversation between +Mario Valenzuela II , +Ariel Diana, and I, Mario revealed that in a discussion between him and Akira, Akira had praised Oliver. He said in essex even, that she Idolizes him and his brilliance. So if anyone could help him come back it would be her... The person who gained control of the NL vehicles after these deaths.... I feel it would not be out of the realm of possibility for Oliver to use one of his followers to come back to full existence here. Akira i do not feel ordered these deaths, but Oliver did because he knew some one who would be willing to help him would be taking over the NL projects if the current person died and then in turn give him control over the NL projects....

            I think this is why Olivers Dosser followed NL this year even as he wasnt fully present, because he was there, just not physically and when he gets back he will be either using or working with Akira on the NL vehicles.

            I suspect the murder has something to do with the advancement of Ingress Prime. I suspect Phillips was holding back the new scanner technology from being released as he wanted a better understanding of what it was capable of. But that obviously didn't sit well with IQ Tech and others because their investments in exploring XM/CM would benefit from any new advancement in scanner technology. Bring more people under the influence of XM via Ingress Prime would allow them to profit further. In steps in Hank, and while he's in transition, the new scanner technology gets leaked/stolen. Hank becoming the head of NIA was accidental I believe. And this forced the hand of others into stealing the technology as they would have feared Hank would follow in Phillips' footsteps by holding back Prime. Akira and Oliver (IQ Tech) seem to be the biggest winners in this.

            It was my belief that it was OLW. Infact, I came up to that conclusion after talking to +H. Richard Loeb​​​​​​​ during the PAC Crawl.

            Here is how:

            We had a discussion about monsters. How monsters / Kaiju 40+ ft tall aren't scary to him. The real monsters he's afraid of are people and even animal's like pethulhu who seem innocent.

            From the ENL PAC crawl investigation and the leaked docs, we learned that OLW was not fully here, in our node. Acolyte was Tywla, and Akira was in San Francisco to check out +November Lima​​​​​​​, and the murderer was someone thst disappeared.

            Acolyte, may have been a grifter in the past but were she truly reformed from XM exposure and resurection as a simulacra she would have everything to loose with +Hank Johnson​​​​​​​ being in control of the NIA. Why? Two of Hank's former love-interests are on the resistance and his close friend, +Misty Hannah​​​​​​​ doesn't trust Twyla due to their sorted past. As a former swindler she would know that pulling that job would have not been worth the risk as the benefits it granted could be easily passed off to a third party. Also, last year at Via Noir, I had a smurf on a rope. She got disgusted by that effigy. She told me "death is not my thing.". She isn't a murderer. She's a grifter. But I still wonder about Mazz...

            Akira did in deed benifit from the changes of fate the murders brought about. She had no more governmental red tape to worry about and no one trying to peddle her research off as meerly a video game to covertly track individuals around the world. But someone else would have benifited.l by the age of scientific discovery that would be available as a result of Hank Johnson becoming the head of the NIA... Oliver Linton Wolfe!

            Oliver Linton-Wolfe had the most motive behind the murder. He hated what Philips and Calvin did with the NIA. He stated back in Cassandra how they turned xm research into a game of espionage and robbed it of its abilities to gain http://true.knowledge!! He even stated he would turn them, and his enemies, to ash under his gaze; a prophetic claim knowing they died in a fire. +Oliver Lynton-Wolfe​​​​​​​ is that monster that PAC fears. An individual who appears innocent and innocuous but is capable of horrendous acts due to scientific curiosity, gross negligence,and a thirst for revenge.

            I asked myself, what would Oliver Linton Wolfe do? My answer was: BURN THEM ALL!

            But how did how do it? Easily... The desire he had when he built his tecthulhu was to create a means of bridging the dimensional nodes so he could gain true knowledge. That bridge was in the process of being rebuilt, all he had to do is send data packets to get the ball rolling.

            So who invited them all to San Francisco? Well... It was Twyla the Acolyte. She like Jarvis, sought redemption in the city of St. Francis. If my hunch is correct; Ben Jackland is one of her partners in crime, just like Klue. They leaked the original scanner, they decided to leak the next one.

            I would have to say I believe +Ishira Tsubasa and +Mario Valenzuela II have captured everything that I remember hearing or being discussed over the course of the anomaly and I have to say I also believe it is Oliver as well. Yes it's possible he sent the EXOPRE shards as a way of reaching out to bridge the gap between dimensional nodes, however I personally can not jump to that being the only conclusion for them showing up after day one.

            I now have one other question, Has OLW finished taking out those that would prevent from obtaining his primary goal or will there be more? I personally think enough blood has been shed in recent months.

            +Ariel Diana​​​ remember, 13MR day one allowed Shaper aligned exos to enter into Misty"s mind palace. Day 2 allowed shaper aligned exogenous precursors to enter our node using NL. The murders goes back to after day one of 13MR to the day of the RPE when we went to find out what was lured into her mind palace...

            Oh damn. Misty said it wasn't Jarvis in her mind Palace... She also said she felt Oliver's presence since he vanished.

            Holy crap.

            +Ariel Diana​​​​ I know. The murders all predate the exopre shards, meaning those shards were not the specific "data packets" OLW sent out, they were not the kill orders. The exopre were something that were capable of entering in as a result of OLW's work.

            Think of it like Oliver leaving a window open after shouting out of it, then a wasp flew in and started building a nest.

            +Mario Valenzuela II well seeing I was in the middle of work I may not have made myself clear... I was saying maybe he sent them as a way to bridge the gap to help facilitate his coming back to our dimensional node. For all we know he could have reached out to Akira though the portals or through XM to facilitate the murders. Sorry, hope that clears it up a little as to what I was thinking. Now where's more coffee??? Lol

            I agree that if he sent the exopre they may exist to bridge the gap (Akira hinted at that possibility in the 13mr anomaly docs).

            It might be possible, though she didnt seem to have anything against Calvin, Owens, or Philips

          ON THE PASSING OF ZEKE CALVIN: Forgive me for taking so long to acknowledge the death of a man who was so important and central to my life. Even now, I do not know all of the ways he impacted it, because some of it is still lost to memories and some of my memories might be manufactured memories. And.... I suppose my delay is in part that I was hoping to discover that the news was a hoax. But alas, Zeke is dead.

          Zeke was the pioneer of strange human powers. Leveraging his position at the NIA, recently called the most spookiest of the spook agencies, he attempted to learn about things such as Remote Viewing and today, we have Remote Participation, a huge upgrade. Was that Whydah or Waratah? I can't remember. Maybe it was Marie Celeste, but I don't think so.

          Some expect me to be angry with him, for whatever caused the invasion of my brain happened at one of those events, but I'm quite sure I knew the risks I was taking and I wouldn't change anything... I'm reminded of a song playing in one of the early events: 'What a long, strange trip this has been.'

          And to his detractors, Zeke was super-human, but human is part of super-human. He made mistakes, he did bad things, but without him, Niantic would never have happened. I miss him, but I am quite sure he will pass this way again.

          It is all coming back in waves, like many things from my past. But Zeke. He's something that is clear. I can only hope that the secrets of the universe are revealing themselves to him as I write this and you read this.

            +Edgar Allan Wright As one of the two GM's from the Boulder RPE session, with +Mario Valenzuela II being the second, I would like to give you a recap of the events that unfolded during the Boulder RPE session...

            It started at the Gamer's Guild the Friday night before the November 4th Anomaly.

            Groups of agents from both factions gathered together for this event...

            They all received messages from Akira, telling them to get to Niantic. The group was sent to the facility by none other than a ghostly +Klue S.....

            From there the groups journeyed through the Niantic facility gathering strange shards and encountering things outside of time and space caused by exogenous forces that were trapped in this facility... Two agents were marked.

            The journey culminated with the groups coming face to face with the +Oliver Lynton-Wolfe tecthulhu and reactivating it with the shards that they have gathered and the two marked agents being the catalysts to empower the strange device...

            Then the tecthulhu sent them back to the Gamer's Guild in Boulder.

          It is a bit out of character for me, but I've developed a curious fascination with the murder of Ken Owens. Mind you, as I was excluded from the Niantic Project itself, I do not believe I ever met the man, but I do believe I met Jay Phillips. Do we know what he looks like? Has he killed anybody other than Jarvis and the woman who may or may not have been Catalina? Do we know for certain that he has ordered the death of anybody? I am trying to summon this from my memory.

          I am trying to either rule him in or out of the murder of Ken Owens. The thing that rattles around in my mind is 'why the staging of the body at Kennedy Center.' Do any of those on the suspect list have a history of staging murders?

          Pardon me. It seems like I've asked a lot of questions. Feel free to answer as many as you want.

            Ken Owen never bothered himself with wetwork. He was the narrative management guy. The one in charge of restructuring the large-scale media image of the world of +Ingress and XM.

            Phillips was the one who got down and dirty, who made the dark calls that ended lives.

            The only other person that Jay Phillips killed himself was to my knowledge Kaoru Wong, the technician at HAZDATA. Regarding order of death he ordered Mary Niven to go after +H. Richard Loeb and +Klue S. He has ordered 855 to kill +Devra Bogdanovich and +Hubert Farlowe. He also assigned Robert “Bobby” Ferris to go after +Devra Bogdanovich and Samuel Rosier to “look after” +Hank Johnson.

            As reported before by +H. Richard Loeb, we can see that Jay Phillips was concerned about someone who had (maybe) worked with him. He refers to that person as "snake" which could suddenly attack him at any time. I don't know who this person is, but I think that Phillips may be involved in an assassination in order to keep himself safe.

          After reading +H. Richard Loeb's latest post, I am concerned. It is evident to me that the creation of a Mind Palace in an Anomalous Zone, probably with the help of a Tecthulhu is really the creation of a Dimensional Note -- a state of reality -- a world. What can possibly be the intention of Misty creating a world for the purposes of 'summoning' (manifesting?) an Exogenous Entity.

          Isn't that simply a modern moustache on 'Summoning Demons?' Has this ever been a beneficial practice?

          I want to believe that Misty's intentions are good, but, at the risk of straining the metaphor, isn't the road to Hell paved with good intentions?

          What should we caution Agent of in the upcoming anomaly? Or am I overreacting and reading something into this cryptic post that is not there?

            Wait.

            So a Dimensional Node is...a world? In the compromised XM Briefing, someone referred to our entire universe as a Node.

            So is +Misty Hannah trying to make a new world? Is it going to be a prison for the Exogenous?

            Obviously we should exercise caution to Agents towards assisting her but let's be real. They either won't care or don't want to help. They're going to be responsible for this.

            Can we factor in that Misty may be a bit of an adrenaline junkie? Look at what she has lived through and done?

Also, sometimes I get the vibe, sure we should not do it, but we can do it so let's do it, from Misty :) One of those, "We never know unless we try" mentalities.

            Lastly, Misty has a top hat, can you imagine pulling out instead of a rabbit an Exogenous Entity? (yes I have to add a video meme for this) - youtube.com - Bullwinkle 1 0001

            I have considered more than profoundly the possibility that +Misty Hannah is trying to recreate in a modern way what the evocators of all times - the shamans of the oldest, exogenous epochs - to medieval magicians have always made: to evoke entities that do not belong to our plan of existence. Which in the past centuries have been called in many ways, with many ethical and moral meanings; We, in some cases, know them as demons.

            +Hank Johnson and +H. Richard Loeb have done several times that she was pursued by demons, by her demons - something personal, something that had fought for so long.

            You use the word evocation, not by accident. And the fact that it serves them to do it - to penetrate the veils that separate the worlds, the nodes - is something common to every evocation practice. Have catalysts.
            Energies - sexual, spirited, mechanical or alchemical - that release enough energy to allow contact.

            If we think of abnormalities as particular periods in which it is easier to collect energy, for the over-excited motion of exotic matter then yes, it seems likely that Misty's action will be something very similar to a ring of evocation.

            More events, arranged in a geometric way on a world, our real world, which has been able to be inscribed in geometric grids several times since the times of Helios, and that it can therefore give each geolocated "place" its precise position within A glyph map, then the hypothesis becomes almost certainty.

            Using Mind Palaces as a safe place for access to other planes of existence is, in a simplified manner, what is already described in the Bible about the Jacob's Ladder and his Teomachia.

            The patriarch in his dream has witnessed the presence of a link between the divine / astral and the material plan, and the movement through that "palace" of entities that defining exogenous is not wrong.

          I have received an anonymous scholarly tip that the Essex might have made a stop in San Diego before heading to San Francisco. I have no checked the ship's log, but it would be a fascinating development as San Diego was also the first place where Tycho Appeared. It would not surprise me if there was an anomalous zone in that area at that time. In fact, I am beginning to believe that Anomalous Zones are much more common than we might have previously believed. The question is where the Niantic might have landed and what was present in that period. Perhaps it was a routine stop o a long voyage or perhaps there was other meaning. I am having trouble getting the idea that Fletcher and Harlan might have met, but the timelines might not allow for that.

          I welcome any insights you might have.

            Could there be a pattern in their stops? And who could've sent you the tip? In my opinion, Tycho is a strange person. We do only have a small list of known Anomalous Zones. But they might be all around us without knowing. What were the last locations of the Niantic?

            I would not want to venture too much with this hypothesis, but if we consider the most common Anomalous Zones than we have so far considered, and we know that within the Anomalous Zones time and space are completely different from the rest of the continuum then the hypothesis that such a meeting actually took place would not be so unlikely.

            The real problem, in my opinion, is the lack of reliable historical data for those who are away from American soil.
            Without the opportunity to visit and document on the field the places you refer to, +Edgar Allan Wright everything becomes very difficult.

            Congratulations and assumptions are fine, but to test them, it is necessary to have agents in the field.
            I strongly hope that some of our investigating colleagues who live or travel to San Diego can provide more reliable information.

            There seem to be no official record that Essex unlike Niantic ever made it either to San Francisco or to San Diego. We know however that both ships had close connections. Essex was build in Nantucket Island, while Niantic was owned by Nantucket based Cleveland family. Do those two ships share more than we know of? Was Essex crew and Niantic crew connected remotely via prime objects? I think it may be speculated that Niantic and/or Essex crew included sensitives (maybe Anaztec tribesman) who were looking for something in San Diego that was closely connected with XM. Maybe this, not gold rush, was the reason for Niantic crew desertion in San Francisco. I think San Diego may even be a N'Zeer power spot. That is why it may have been attracted by +Tycho C. and by Niantic Crew. That is maybe why first transatlantic plane was build there. With the help of N'Zeer technology. +Edgar Allan Wright theory of Powerful Anomalous Zone in San Diego is very viable to me for those reasons.

            I'm not sure wether anomalous zones are considered being active by location or by people. Regarding the sourcebook's informations it is unknown what causes the cycles of activity.

            Both ships gave shelter to groups which could be accounted as argonauts searching or hunting for something. This pattern's roots are going back till ancient greek myths.

            An ongoing told story which identities are hidden in the mist of an theseus's paradox? Could this pattern activate an anomalous zone?

            I have found a few possible times that Harlan and Capt Fletcher could have met or at least have been influenced by one or the other.
            Herman Melville was in Nantucket hearing a tale of the sinking of the Essex from one of the survivors. Harlan could have been in the audience.
            Another is that Melville seems have either met with Harlan or read his book A Memoir of India and Afghanistan and referenced it in Moby Dick.
            And then, finally, it is entirely possible for the two to have met in Navarro-by-the-sea, if Harlan ever went north to rest, or San Francisco if Fletcher ever went south for supplies, as that is where Harlan died

            +Edgar Allan Wright​ I'd like to remind you of the "Summer of Love" that happened in 1967. During your formative years I suspect. It is noted as one of the world's most famous social phenomenon, where over 100, 000 people converged in Haight+Ashbury North Beach San Francisco. Perhaps, San Francisco is a strong anomalous zone. Take for instance in the same genre, Jefferson Airplane, who had a top 10 with "White Rabbit", based on a familiar children's story where Alice of "Alice in Wonderland" chooses which pill to take, either of which will bend reality. People were fascinated with things that twisted reality during this time. Perhaps, it was a method of creating a Mega Magnus, with such a huge gathering of potential repetitious architypes ....thoughts from here.

          It appears that a great deal happened at 13MAGNUS: Reawakening. It will undoubtably take some time to debrief and assimilate our findings, but it would be wise to start today while the events of Camp Navarro are fresh in our minds. Of note to me are the revelations of the Remote Participation 'Game' and the rather curious serendipitous or synchronistic events (musket balls and revelation of the Abaddon Magnus). And if you have not observed the Tecthulhu, it is worth doing as soon as a complete link is available. I have heard they were quite extraordinary.

          What did you -- whether onsite or remote -- find most striking?

            Definitely a lot to process between the RPG, the Techthulus (and what they mean for interfacing with the portal network) and other rumors of a new scanner leak... Hard to say that any one of those was more striking than the others.

            The RPG was beyond anything I've ever heard of in this investigation.

            It reminds me of Anomalies, where particular activity can influence an event, but this was on a totally different scale.

            Take the second event with +Hank Johnson​ into account: the Niantic Project lab, overrun with Chaotic Matter-influenced HAZDATA operatives and a group of Agents who somehow managed to enter that particular moment in time are now tasked with getting out from the lab...I think. (I'll have to update this with the specific details later or perhaps somehow on site can correct me.)

            It goes beyond Anomalies. Instead of influencing the Portal Network in order to influence events, Agents can now directly be at them.

            There were so many things that were striking to me. From the beautiful artwork to just the feeling of being there... It seemed we were much more of a family there, as if this were the place we were all meant to be and leaving it was hard... The RPG has forever changed my views, and even now I'm trying to recover from it all... I don't feel as connected to my scanner anymore, it's an odd feeling.

          I think I can shed a little light into the Intel drop that appeared today on Investigate. The purpose of a number of think tanks and projects that preceded Niantic (Waratah, Marie Celeste -- though my chronology might be off -- and others who's names escape me at this moment) were not only remote viewing, but 'remote presence'. The premise from somebody, Calvin? Kureze? I am unable to recall exactly who, was that if you could 'view' past or 'parallel' events, you could affect them. You were present. I do not remember us coming to a conclusion and it remained an open question.

          We realized that the paradox was that if we caused a split and returned to our coordinates, we never knew what happened to the split. I have come to suspect that part of my disorientation (which is much improved) is that part of me is on another path.

            +Edgar Allan Wright​ let me propose another explanation...
            The Time Traveler Immunity theory:
            As you’re surely aware, every time a time traveler interacts with history it has repercussions. What you may not realize is every action, no matter how insignificant, actually creates a brand new timeline. Time Traveler’s Immunity has a couple of ramifications. One of them is that the time traveler will still have memories of his previous timeline. The other side effect is that when a time traveler uses a portal, that portal will open at that time in all future timelines. This means that if a time traveler changes a timeline where you had previously used a portal... The portal
            will still open up in the new timeline, even if you don’t exist in said timeline! You are in a sense immune to changes.

            Time Bastard Theory
            You’ve probably heard of the law of conservation of mass. Matter may neither be created nor destroyed. However, this theory is not for a specific point in time, but rather across all of time. This can get complicated when time travel is concerned. If you travel in time you can meet an older version of yourself, because mass is still conserved across time. Time bastard can come into effect if the timeline changes, causing a time traveler to not portal at the moment he or she did in a previous timeline. Due to Time Traveler’s Immunity (TTI) that time traveler will still exit the portal as usual, causing the time traveler to exist twice in the timeline. At this point, the time traveler who originally was supposed to portal and didn’t will cease to exist. It is unclear exactly what happens to them...

          This is DEVELOPING RESEARCH, but I am trying to understand what I am calling THE EXOGENOUS PERIOD. This is a period of unknown duration that existed between the pre-historic period and the early historic period when some scholars speculate that the Exogenous (Shapers/N'zeer and maybe others) were actually in our world on Planet Earth. The Exogenous Period explains why Prime Objects are still on Earth and still functional. It might also explain odd commonalities in ancient mythology and the flowering of early civilizations.

          What is unknown is the why of it. Why they arrived when they did and why they apparently vanished and were only able to communicate through XM in portals afterwards.

          My research is very preliminary, but with the oncoming 13MAGNUS REAWAKENING event (I believe that is what it is called), it would be wise to explore the first awakening period.

          would be quite interested in hearing theories either in support or opposed to the Exogenous Period theory.

            Thinking about some of the elements we are aware of, like the Aegis Nova Shield, I cant help but wonder if these were put in place to protect us from the influence of Exogenous Entities. In which case, i can see humans themselves responsible for the banishing of these entities from our world during the end of the first awakening period. Motivators for this uprising could have been to stop their influence over mankind, to break free from a sort of tyranny, or out of fear of their technology. Another aspect is that these Entities may have found a way to exist in a different material form and used early man in accomplishing this task, thus leaving the physical world(and their technology behind) and existing in the Ultimate. Places like Göbekli Tepe could have been centers of power for these societies. Akira once was able to extract Nigels memories from the substrate- since little historic data exists from the first awakening period perhaps some memories of that time could be extracted?

            Likewise your way +H. Richard Loeb, even Lovecraft and Howard theorized a possibility of this type.

            Their ancient migrants, of the myth of the first "historic" time for us inhabited the earth. According to the two authors, some of the possible reasons why these ancients had abandoned our Earth there were some stellar alignments and favorable action of cataclysms.
            Another possibility - always given by the authors - is that the Great Old Ones are simply asleep - as well as the literary Cthulhu, a dreamless sleep like death, but death is not - waiting to awaken when the weather and the stars the are propitious.

            Surely, through the exotic matter, the knowledge of these stories is penetrated up to the two writers, that there have left traces.
            Or, more simply, the two were more than fabulists; very talented psychics.

            Are we witnessing the end of the time of peace? The period in which the ancestral monsters that ruled the earth and now live in our nightmares are about to awaken is next?

            I wouldn't say it's impossible. I know there are legends and lore in many places about beings that have come from the sky and how in some areas it's more predominant than others. An example would be Area 51. Many people claim to see things and in fact, where the Reawakening event is we have legends of orbs of light within our forest that people believe cause numerous amount of things or even represent many sorts of things. One local lore even says the orbs are signs that an earthquake will happen. I know here where I live there's lights in the sky or large booms that are unexplained so many beliefs run with them either being extraterrestrial or some government cover-up.

            I don't know, it seems a little too firmly anchored in pseudo-science. It undervalues the intelligence and moxie of Homo Sapiens. I feel 99% of prehistoric mythos were focused on explaining natural phenomenon, which is why they have common themes. When you're part of the evolution of language and arts, I think it's hard to see where they "came from" so you invent a mythos, and language and arts become "gifts of the gods". We have the advantage of a longer perspective on these events. There are very few that really stand out as "anomalous" to me.

            The Anunaki, Kemetic (Egyptian) gods, and European pre-Christian deities all have those deities who are elements of nature. But then there are those with striking similarities to deities in South and Central Americas. These seem to predate known contact, and either we no longer share the same psychological archetypes that our ancestors had (which is absurd, if these archetypes are by definition archetypes) or there is room to question just how interconnected​ the ancient world was.

            The expulsion of the gods is not sufficiently explained. It is a gap in history. Why?

            The recent viral video of the girl who escaped North Korea offers this clue: she thought the Kims could read her thoughts. What if this same kind of belief existed in their time? Wouldn't this imply by archetypal framework that the Shapers are not benevolent, but in fact dictators?

            More information is needed. But also more discernment.

            The is a common trope in modern/urban fantasy/sci-fi which has been called the masquerade. It's the notion that in the past "magic" was common place but then almost completely vanished. The very existance "magic" then becomes veil and hidden in secrecy to the point where fiery hell hounds look like oversized Dobermans, a dragon flying overhead looks like a 747, and a bunch of people taking over a city by taking over extra dimensional nodes look like they are playing a cell phone game.

            Maybe what we are witnessing is not the arrival of entities from the beyond but the opening of that veil.

          Fascinating responses to the Archetype questions. It has occurred to me, though I have hardly settled on this theory, that such things as Astrology and Tarot bear the same relationship to Primal Archetyping that man made imitations of Prime Object bear to their original counterparts. For instance, suppose that the original resonators on earth appeared like obelisks, man then made obelisks first to re-capture the power of them and the originals and then forgot the early impulse and considered them interesting decoration. And I would not rule out a the possibility that we have dominant and subdominant archetypes.

          So we all might possess different degrees or archetypes, and they might shift. This is only speculation, but I am interested in your thoughts.

            Hmm - some of your comments are using language similar to what a genetics discussion might use. Are you suggesting an organic component to Archetypes? Perhaps even a theory of governance for them along the lines of organic evolution for DNA phenotypes???

            If I remember correctly, a very similar ideation was also been discussed some time ago into Essex.

            Indeed it would be very sensible to assume the presence of more facets in a "something" so structurally massive as is the human psyche and its natural aptitudes - formed to another not only by nature in the strict sense, but also by the environment in which being human grows and matures, from his life experiences and who and what is around him.

            Research on the archetypes has not, I believe, enough instruments to deepen and find definitive answers.

            It 'just as the artistic representation of those ideas that, however, transcend the physical and material world, suggested by perceptions that do not know how to explain.

            We are not yet able to dig deep enough.

            Ive always found it fascinating how Menhirs were often put in place on burial grounds and that they often engraved with Megalithic Art. Take for instance Newgrange in Ireland, which could have been a prehistoric Abaddon chamber or Anomalous Zone. It makes sense that these structures are engraved with forms of glyphs and artifacts so that people could interact with different trans-dimensional layers. In relating to Archetypes though, could these places have existed to focus or strengthen peoples dominant or subdominant archetypes? I would suggest that like a gemstone we all have natural talent, but how we interact with XM/Zones shapes and polishes our various talents. Perhaps even a force can choose to give us a specific Archetype?

            Hello Dr.+Edgar Allan Wright​​​​ nice to hear from you again hopefully everything is well!?

            I agree with you about the fact that there are different degrees and/or archetypes which might shift. This could depend on different reasons, like for example the amount of xm in the area, personal development and also conditions which we don't know exactly yet.

            Some questions matured in my mind, if i may ask, what do you think about the Eternal City of Rome with it's 13 Obelisks throughout the City? Could Rome be a prime spot for a Magnus to be formed or possibly the first Location on earth where a Magnus was ever formed in the past?
            And if so could there be a secret passage beyond the City's catacombs which might lead to a vault or chamber similar to the ABADN one beneath CERN? Could rather +Hank Johnson​​​ know more about the Eternal City than he divulged to us in the past?

            Please stay safe Doc!!

            +Edgar Allan Wright​​ makes a lot of sense considering that most people are not just one thing all the time; we have multiple facets, wear multiple hats, and play different roles depending on the situation. What I wonder if a person's archetype can evolve over time as if it they were skills, so to speak, that could improve over time or wane with neglect. If so, then this might lead to the existance of dual archetypes, should an individual's archetypal resonance be equally matched over various archetypes and would lead to a situation within a Magnus where one or more spots may be "empty" as a result of someone serving multiple functions. If true, this might explain the "empty" pods within the Niantic magnus.

            I think the Myers-Briggs spectrum to personality for comparison to the archetypes posed here creates a tangible parallel. The Jungian shadow also contributes dimension, especially so as Jung theorized with archetypes about the human psyche. It would break from psychological theories in general to suggest anyone was merely one type of something, 100%.

            Another draw from psychological research would be to consider these archetypes and our dimensions within them via a biopsychosocial approach. What does our biology contribute to our archetype? Our psychology? Our socializing? And in addition, our spirituality? etc.

            There is the additional question of which comes first? Archetype or traits of the archetype? As in temperament vs personality, there is theory that suggests a person is born with a fairly set temperament, but personality nuances develop with biopsychosocial influences. Are we born certain archetypes? Do we develop them based on our influences? Or is it something of both?

            I think the possibility of existing within several archetypes complicated by depth within each of those archetypes have contributed to some people's confusion over the placement some Niantic researchers have received within the archetypes.

            +Edgar Allan Wright​ The next step, as I see it, is to probe the dynamics of the Magnus group itself. As we get closer to understanding the nature of the archetypes individually, I can't help but begin to see the group as a dynamic system. For example, some pairings seem to immediately conflict: the skeptic and the spiritualist (one doubts and the other believes) or the trickster and the omniscient (one wants to joke, the other already knows the punchline). Others seem natural fits: the explorer and the translater (both are concerned with the exotic) or the patron and the visionary (one has the capital, the other has the idea). With all these types, alliances, and antagonisms, I wonder if a Magnus group can ever be stable over the long term or if they carry the seeds of their calamity with them at the outset.

            +Edgar Allan Wright I agree with you. As I said in my previous comment I do not feel I am one but multiple archetypes. I feel that people have the potential to be many. What we believe is our archetype may in fact change in the eyes of some one else. What we experience may shift our archetypes. I've watched the shards come out and I know some archetypes have been a surprise to many as it was believed some of the researchers fit certain archetypes. I think it's a perfect example that can be fluid and be dependent on the person making the analysis at the time.

          Excellent work. We should explore this along with the implication of sub-dominant traits that some Essexians have suggested. Secondary Archetypes we all might possess.
          I did some research into the traits of the different MAGNUS archetypes asked in H. Richard Loeb's post and thought I'd post a summer of each from what I've learned.

          Alchemist
          The Alchemist is a person who is able to create things or transforms an items or situation, in a mysterious or impressive way that can seem like magic to others. The alchemist, no matter what you call it (Magician, Wizard, Scientist, Inventor etc.) has a common trait that allows them to convert some form of matter into some form of an altered expression of itself. Some are able to get results that are outside the “normal”, others are associated with having supernatural powers, transmuting base metals into gold, even spiritual transformation. Seduction and trickery to play upon the desires of people are also traits of the Alchemist archetype however it is considered a shadow (or dark) side of this archetype. Some shadow (or dark) Alchemists even go so far to use their ingenuity for criminal or unethical purposes, or can feel superior based on their higher intellect.

          Catalyst
          The Catalyst is a person who can motivate or push change through a protagonist or in the protagonist’s world (this can include their world). A Catalyst can enjoy intentionally influencing others and seeing the beneficial change that comes as a result, can be considered excellent in times of strife or upheaval, their core remains unchanged from change-making, can be seen as charismatic, imaginative, clever, visionary, idealistic, mysterious, mystical or able to articulate ideals and complex reasoning simply to others. The Catalyst believes in the inter-connectivity of things and is spiritual, but can also have high (sometimes impossibly high) standards. a Catalyst can be a mentor, sidekick, a kick-butt karate master, revolutionary or a third character who can be sought out for advice.

          Dreamer
          A Dreamer is someone that can imagine different possibilities that are beyond the scope of someone individual life and can benefit all of society. The Dreamer can also be called Innocent, Naïve, Romantic, Mystic or even Utopian. Traits for the Dreamer include introspective, private, creative, highly idealistic, empathetic, compassionate, artistic, having a talent for language and writing, easygoing, selfless, adaptable, patient, and loyal. Depending on who you speak with the Dreamer can also be considered a prophet, or a seer, however in regards to Ingress, I imagine the Dreamer to be someone who likes to be themselves, constantly trying to do things correctly, has faith in himself, and is optimistic, seeking to dream what could be.

          Explorer
          The Explorer is generally seen as an action hero or Adventure hero however the Explorer speaks to all characters evolve that want to out, explore new learning opportunities, create new insights for our world, or explore ourselves and our sense of identity. Explorers are generally pure individualist that always seek the next horizon they look for freedom and adventure around every corner.

          Humanist
          The Humanist believes in all beings great and small. Using their knowledge and ability to analyze the world, they understand no one is perfect; however everyone has gifts that they can share with others. The Humanist has a tendency for self-reflection and searches out information and knowledge about the world around them. They struggle to find a balance between studying the details of a problem or situation forever (without acting to fix/correct the issue) and being able to connect with others and interact with society.

          Interpreter
          Since I wasn’t able to find any other archetypes that could be used to help explain or define the Interpreter, I had to go with what the definition states. An Interpreter is a person who interprets, or translates, speech especially oral speech.

          Listener
          Since I wasn’t able to find any other archetypes that could be used to help explain or define the Listener, I had to go with what the definition states. A Listener is a person who gives attention to another, particularly listening to audio sounds (speech, music, white noise, etc.).

          Omniscient
          Since I wasn’t able to find any other archetypes that could be used to help explain or define the Omniscient, I had to go with what the definition states. An Omniscient is a person who is all knowing, having infinite awareness, understanding, and insight, or is possessed of universal or complete knowledge.

          Patron
          The Patron is a person who supports another person, institution, event, or organization. The Patron can also be a protector or someone who enjoys helping to shape or mentor people so the other person can become the very best they can. Patrons have a tendency to take a person or people under their care, seeing to their needs, their discipline and giving them the tools and knowledge they need to better themselves. Methods and practices vary but in the end the Patron tries to obtain a finished product that can become a credit to the Patron’s name or namesake. Patrons have been known to turn in the IOUs owed to them by their charges at a later date or time. Do not fall into the notion that the Patron won’t dole out any damage if the charge fails to fulfill the IOU that’s owed to the Patron, because the Patron may not stop seeking revenge until they feel they have been paid back in full (ounce for ounce, pound for pound).

          Skeptic
          A Skeptic is someone that questions the validity or authenticity of anything that is considered factual. The Skeptic has been known to have a doubting attitude towards many things, like values, statements, religion, beliefs, a person’s character, etc. The Skeptic may also feel that it is impossible to reach the level of real knowledge of any kind and may be seen as being pessimistic or exercise extreme caution before acting since they may not be as convinced as the rest of the group.

          Spiritualist
          The Spiritualist is someone that is seen as being caught between the material world and the supernatural world. The Spiritualist may be seen as a mystic or a healer but can also be thought to have powers gained from their connection to the supernatural world, may believe that the spirits of the dead can speak with the people who are alive and may advocate the philosophy that the spirit exists separate from matter.

          Trickster
          The Trickster can find the joy of humor in any situation, no matter how bad it might be. They seem to get away with anything they want. The Trickster can be either a human or non-human character that likes to play jokes or tricks on others, is made fun of or may be camouflaged as a demigod of any specific religion, they do not like to see others in sorrow or pain so the try to lighten those around them, they tend to have higher ideals than most would expect. In many cultures, though, especially among Native Americans, the Trickster can also be the Creator’s helper or messenger. The Trickster might only be seen as being of a negative position, however the Trickster can often be a great ally by presenting you with alternatives to what is normally seen as the straight and narrow (and often boring) path.

          Visionary
          The Visionary is someone that sees things, ideas and situation that are outside the realms of what is considered normal. They tend to be open-minded, energetic, persuasive, adventurous, bold and self-assured. They can often be ignored by society, even though they are the ones that are responsible for bringing about change or progress.

            A definite subtype would be Scholar/Decrypter. There is an incredible amount of knowledge out there and we need people who can dig deep into a subject and find the gems...looking at this topic, i would classify subtypes as ingredients that are necessary parts of an archetype- but various archetypes can have the same ingredients, it depends on how we are trained and what we choose to develop.

            As with XM, the earth is changing. It's constant in that it is there but over time it changes its position or kenetic output. The Earth's axis has changed and thus a 13th Zodiac symbol has manifested.
            Here is the new order of the 13 zodiac signs, according to NASA:

            Capricorn: Jan. 20 - Feb. 16
            Aquarius: Feb. 16 - March 11
            Pisces: March 11 - April 18
            Aries: April 18 - May 13
            Taurus: May 13 - June 21
            Gemini: June 21 - July 20
            Cancer: July 20 - Aug. 10
            Leo: Aug. 10 - Sept. 16
            Virgo: Sept. 16 - Oct. 30
            Libra: Oct. 30 - Nov. 23
            Scorpio: Nov. 23 - Nov. 29
            Ophiuchus: Nov. 29 - Dec. 17
            Sagittarius: Dec. 17 - Jan. 20

            NASA, you say? Yes, their understanding of patterns and results of those patterns is proven. If it's a hadron collider or a simple computer lab or XM, either can be a future pattern emulsifier for a portal. The resulted post of Magnus archetypes can and should be matched up with the Zodiac/Patterns that make sub-dominant traits.

          I have been asked to assemble a list of possible 13MAGNUS and ANTI-MAGNUS groups from history. Other than the Vesuvian Magnus, none seems to be mentioned by name, but we have strong reason to believe that Alexander and Ada of Caria were members of one, perhaps along with Aristotle, Ptolomy,, etcetera. Its also been suggested that the Hellfire Club and perhaps even the American Founding fathers were a Magnus. The earliest Magnus was, perhaps the Egyptian Pantheon of Gods...

          What are other possible Magnus' from the past? What am I forgetting? Feel free to speculate.

            I'm going to hazard a guess and suggest King Arthur and the knights of the round table.

            We know Bleckley park was where Nigel Moyer learned about Tecthulhu and probably started experimenting with it's technology. Stonehenge and even Cybella took time to visit a few places in the UK that would suggest a Magnus order of some kind, so King Arthur and his knights being a Magnus order makes a kind of sense I just can't ignore

            +Edgar Allan Wright​, the American founding father's were definitely a Magnus group, the amount of geometry that was even put into the US capital was evidence of this. There's a painting in the Capital called "The Apotheosis" which shows several of the founding father's in elevated God-like poses, mimicking the Greek and Romans gods of ages past

            Can't help but be a bit skeptical....who asked you to make the list, Dr? And why?

            If a possibly accurate list of groups are assembled, could key sites associated with those group be mined for potentially hidden Primal Artifacts, similar to the ones hidden in Persepolis by Thais?

            Ashoka the Great was rumoured to have created an secret group of 9 men tasked with gathering various kinds of knowledge. During this time his empire also spread to some of the greatest areas. It was probably the largest Indian empire ever. It extended from modern day Iran to parts of south-east Asia. Maybe this is where Jahan has her roots, and may have possibly been an anti-magnus movement.

I find a perfect fit in the events surrounding the actions of the Aesir(Anti-Magnus?) and the Vanir (13 Magnus?)leading to Ragnarok, which i believe was a self-destruct code initiated by Loki. The Norse gods themselves may have been powerful sensitives. Im going to be delving into this further in a more extensive study.

            It might have been one of them Zhu Yuanzhang, alias the first Emperor of Hongwu Emperor in China / Ming Dynasty.
            Originally he belonged to White Lotus, but later he withdrew from White Lotus and suppressed it.
            As one of the possible things, probably he belongs to the 13Magnus side and he seems to have changed himself to the Anti-Magnus side later.

            In Japan's Sengoku period, Oda Nobunaga and Toyotomi Hideyoshi suppressed Japan 's Buddhist forces in Japan, After that Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa shogunate is suppressed Christianity in Japan, this may also have been influenced by the conflict between 13Magnus and Anti-Magnus.

          This is speculation on my part, but I am beginning to believe that as more Howcraft and Felicia fragments surface, we will discover that they are both accounts of the same series of events told from very different perspectives. It seems that Felicia has 'mental access' and can see into the thoughts of others in more or less present tense and reality (NOTE: we need a word for the Apparent place and time in which we perceive ourselves to be living) for brief glimpses while Howcraft sees events, but interprets them through the eyes of asynchronous viewers.

          Is that correct?

            Felicias document was written in 3rd person, and Howcrafts was 1st. This difference of perspective could account for the multiple vantage points- but it does add a bit of question as to what Howcraft saw- as typically 1st person viewpoints are limited to that persons own understanding of events.

We've seen many instances of XM sensitivity having varying effects based on the mental predispositions of the sensitive. Is that the case here or is there more to it, like the means by which Felicia, Howard, and Lovecraft came by their information?

          Question of the Day 10/15 Answer: The question of Devra's Vault is fascinating to me. Sometimes, simply asking a question begets answers not only to that question, but other unstated questions.

          While technically, the correct answer might be 'A memory from Devra's Childhood', the question in and of itself begets discussion about a secret backup facility for Niantic Researcher memories. I have a very strong suspicion that such a place and thing exists, but I have to revisit that. Do we know that such a backup exists? Is there evidence of it?

          And what of the Portal Virus. It is my clear impression that she used the last of it at Hulong and, as you know, she has resisted every attempt I've made to open a dialogue with her. I'm not sure why. We are adults, Devra.

          And... While it is not technically the Vault, perhaps the greatest revelation to come from asking this question was the existence of the Miskatonic Library. We now know that although it was believed to be fictional in our plane of existence, it does exist in another plane and that that plane can be accessed from ours.

          Does the ensuing madness of the so-called "Necronomicon" really come from the Glyphs or does it come from clearly seeing what I'll call for the purposes of this discussion an 'Alternate Plane' from our plane -- that the madness comes from the cognitive dissonance of simultaneously experiencing two realities?

            Humans evolved in a 3 dimensional space (4 counting time) that while not truly Euclidean (if it were we'd have no gravity. Relativity requires non-Eucludian space) is effectively Euclidean at the scales we live in, and planet we live. As such our minds have a blind spot toward higher dimensions and curved space. We can probe them with mathematics, but our minds weren't built to experience them.

            Every computer system needs to have it's inputs sanitized. In part because of the halting problem, which says you can't computationally predict whether a program will halt for a given input deterministically. Thus you need to limit your potential inputs to stuff you know to be okay to prevent lockups.

            Human minds are computers in a way. Perhaps experiencing non-Eucludian space or space beyond 3 dimensions causes a mind built for 3 spacial Euclidean dimensions to lock up and crash or become unstable. It never evolved for those inputs.

            I need to digest this, but consider another possibility. Maybe Akira wasn't his student, but she gained access to the memory vaults via Susanna. This is only a partial theory, but Akira seems young for Whydah, but all else seems plausible.

          My answer to the October 14 Question of the Day is complex. Would you expect anything else from me?

          The Narrator is unknown, by definition, because he does not identify himself. So that answer cannot be incorrect.

          As to Obsidius (Obsidias to some), he has been identified as 1st Century Roman. However, it seems that he has an ability to visit other times. However, there is no mention of either Syphax or Sybella. That, in and of himself does not rule him out, but it does not support the case that it is Obsidius.

          It seems fairly clear to me that the observer was looking at a technological object... Quite possibly the Tecthulhu itself and I would suspect that Hank would be able to identify it... Or maybe if my theories about his mind-hacking at the Miskatonic Library are accurate, maybe he couldn't. The jury is out. But Hank is not my first choice.

          Josiah Harlan... Interesting. Mysterious character who was both present in Afghanistan and aboard the Niantic. Did we ever find out what his mysterious stop was? Still, he is the wrong era, but he came from a time when he probably would have recognized a technological object, even if he could not discern its purpose. Or would he have? Not sure.

          My working answer is 'All of the Above.' I am beginning to suspect that the same people return in different times. I can not support this theory, yet, but I strongly suspect that this is the case. I've often wondered whether I have previous versions.

          But my tentative answer is 'All of the Above.'

          As to today's question about Kodama.... I have not come to an answer, yet.

            I'm of the opinion that Kodama isn't just a random Agent who is looking for Susanna Moyer.

            After all, Susanna herself popped up in our Investigation in a similar way. She emerged via conversation with +H. Richard Loeb​. Then the Ingress Report simply....appeared the next day.

            I think she's operating on the agenda of another force. She could have been hired by the NIA to find Susanna and all this is just a cover.

            Also, just for random thought. I just read the info you gave +H. Richard Loeb. So, did you read the document that Agents assembled? If you are the one that Susanna may have seen in the library, what did you find? Was it Lovecraft's famous Necromicron? Or was it the Glyph-inspired books that gave him the idea to create it?

            Good Morning Dr. +Edgar Allan Wright​​​​​, your Theorie about the return of the same people in different times, is a really interesting one and made me think.

            Last night i had the opportunity to read about the 'Grand Race of Yith', they were mentioned in Lovecrafts Book 'The Shadow Out of Time'.

            Lovecraft referred that the 'Great Race' are beings of enormous intellectual and psychic powers, that once dwelt on the dying world of Yith. They escaped the destruction of their home planet by transferring their minds to the bodies of a species native to the Earth in the far distant past. They lived on this planet for 200 million years or so, in fierce competition with the flying polyps, whom they initially subdued. However, this enemy over time increased in number and near the close of the 'Cretaceous' era (about 66 million years ago), rose up and finally destroyed the civilization of the 'Race of Yith', forcing the Yithians to flee en masse to other bodies located far in the future. (the Coleopterous Race)

            The unique ability of this scientifically advanced race was to travel through times by swapping minds with creatures of another era.

            There's also the short story "The Challenge from Beyond', Lovecraft describes a race of grey worm/centipede -like creatures the 'Yekubians' which have similar abilities to the 'Great Race of Yith', but without the power of time travel by mind transfer. They use an odd hieroglyphic-engraved cube, sent out into the cosmos, and once landed on a planet, it's activated by biological interaction and light. This then engages the life form in a similar process ot the Yithian's mind transfer.

            Don't want to go too far with my assumptions, but could the 'Grand Race of Yith' have their hands within 'the game'?

            +Edgar Allan Wright I wanted to ask you about the PM you shared with +H. Richard Loeb - you mention this - "It took me a long time to return from the psychic wilderness. I hope that Hank has not damaged himself in the process. He should keep close check on his sanity. It is also my suspicion that at least one of the two authors of the Howcraft Document gazed on that page, too. And it makes clearer what the Tecthulhu might be. It is not a color out of space, but a thing out of time."

            There is much to break down and would love to discuss this more - but your mention of Color out of space - there are people who see color for taste and similar switching of sensory information - it is called Synesthesia - do you have this and is this condition?

          I'm trying to reconstruct the circumstances of Susanna's last days (if they were her last days). Her father was found dead off Brooklyn and she took off to find out who did it. Do we have any theories as to where she went, and who, in fact killed Nigel Moyer?

            At this point there is confirmed evidence that Antoine Smith killed Nigel. He was order to extract and interrogate him to obtain what he knew of the Aegis Nova. His methods of interrogation were too extreme and Nigel died as a result of the event.

            I can find the conversation that prove this.

She was also looking for Jahan's complex, thinking she was also involved. I do not think anything has happened to Susanna Moyer, she is entirely capable of taking care of herself. But, if she doesn't want to be seen she won't be and I am sure she is hunting people down.

            +Mustafa Said This is a most curious conversation. I am not entirely sure I believe in the theory of The Ultimate, but I can not rule it out. I need more evidence. It would be interesting to see if somebody could figure out how to get a copy of Akira's paper. Could that be what Susanna was trying to get? Or was she trying to either get or deliver something of her father's?

            Also, I might be wrong with my next assumption but I believe you hold a doctorate and I assume you've held academic lectures before. Is it possible that you could try to leverage any contacts you have within the academic world to see if they may have seen it floating around?

            Think of it as a distributed computing project much in the way SETI may use screensaver time from volunteered computer users to process scanned signals. This is the same but were combing the portal network looking for the key to Nigel Moyers secrets with our New wave modded scanners. As we know when agent activity in the same areas spikes it affects the portal network and an XM event follows.

          Forgive me for being out of contact. I am working on an exegesis on what I believe the implications of Obsidias' journeys are, but I find I must digress strictly to a summary of what I believe is happening now. Things are happening too quickly... Will be posting more often during this mysterious period and the longer work will have to wait. Here are my quick thoughts.

          When the Nova Exploded at Aegis Nova, the Shield Was destroyed the true meaning and implications of the event were not apparent to us. Obsidias has left the implication that the destruction of the Vesuvian Shield allowed the Shapers and the N’zeer more direct access to our world -- to inhabit people in unprecedented manner (I am interpolating here). Prior to the ancient event the Transdimensional Entities (and I am not assuming that the Shapers and N'zeer are the only ones) were influencing the human race through 'shaping' and only worked with sensitives and was heightened through primitive (though not necessarily less effective) portal resonation. Now, with the breaking of the shield, shaping and its N'zeer counterpart can occur in any individual exposed to enough XM and what we’ll call ‘Fresh XM’. This is the term I am using to describe the XM one receives on first contact with a new portal. It is my belief that the Acolyte and others are aware of this, hence the call to visit new portals.

          Certainly, this provides a huge opportunity for exploration of the transdimensional, but with opportunity, comes danger. So explore carefully. Note symptoms and changes as you venture new places. I shall do the same.

          It is my belief that the transdimensional entities can directly influence people to amplify the ingression into their bodies. Of course, once they are inside of us, we risk the possibility that they can begin morphing us, I urge research into personal firewalling, though I do not know how this can be accomplished.

          So my advice is to explore carefully and even as I write this, I realize the inherent oxymoron in what I advise. Exploration is, by its very nature, dangerous to the status quo.

            Hmmm. We know that each portal is unique in certain properties, including the capacity to establish quantum entanglement with intelligent entities who engage with them. It seems reasonable to hypothesize that each may have a unique or at least distinct set of relationships with remote entanglements - be those inter-dimensional entities, other channels on Kureze's pixel, or other portals here. As individuals establish entanglement with more and different portals they become part of a broader web of competing influences that could render them more resilient to outside influences by virtue of dynamic equilibrium or, in the event of non-random selection in portal entanglement choices, subject to greater influence by some subset of co-entangled whisperers.

            +N'zeer Ambassador Syphax​ it's the portals is it not? The direct effect of the shield was reduced XM at the portals, coming from the portals. I'm not sure why the XM away from portals is different, but it appears to be. Is the XM away from portals terrestrial and the portal XM extraterrestrial? Perhaps I missed a discussion on this around the time frame of the shield because I was busy with anomaly planning...

            People have been protecting themselves forever by learning to control their thoughts and actions and by metaphysical means of drawing in their auric field and using protective amulets that are charged with power through metaphysical means. Intent is the main purpose behind all of these things. We are not powerless against outside forces. If we were we would have been taken over ages ago. Besides the fact that we have a direct link to the creator of everything we also have our own power through thought which is an energy in and of itself. By directing our thought into intent we can create powerful personal shields which not even the Shapers or N'zeer can penetrate.

            +Edgar Allan Wright, I have to question what "status quo" means at all to a scientist. By their very nature, scientists are exploring, investigating, and changing the world through their insatiable curiosity, which is why it's vital to retain records in the first place. If what science wanted was the status quo, technological and societal progress would not even be possible in a scientific context.

            Rather, we must delve into the realm of the simple. We must have an observation before forming any hypothesis. We must look before any leap is wise or possible.

            Defense against the influence of the Shapers is precisely what the Resistance is about. But to learn, we must observe.

            Treading carefully, eggshells will always be broken by a foot, regardless of how careful. The trick is not to hurt yourself in the process.

          Forgive me for taking so much time with the Translations of +flint dille's Obsidias harvests. They are complex. Here is second Obsidias text from near Vienna:

          It is as if the Shield has been pierced by thousands of arrows and there are places where time and space and other ethers leak back and forth.
          It is evident to me that some of these holes lead to other epochs, whilst remaining in the same location, for instance, this portal in Vindonium seems to move in time but not space as the eternal objects on the horizon remain the same and some of the buildings remain but often in dilapidated condition. Other portals seem to lead to different locations in regions entirely unknown to me. The portal will be high on snow covered hill but will lead to one by an ocean surrounded by tall fir trees.

            that apparent regional shift could simply be a matter of continental drift - assuming the portals' lifespan is measured in geological time and not limited to existing during the period of human civilization.

          Forgive my negligence. +flint dille did indeed forward some Obsidias missives upon his return. I have some trepidation in posting them. I have stripped out some sections, frankly because I fear that I might jeopardize the lives of some who lived long ago on our string, but are very much alive in others. I have seen much lately that is difficult to explain.

          Here is a first installment from Obsidias. I believe it was planted in Britannia (a rRoman Province at the time) near Dover. Obsidias, who could not have known about quantum mechanics or string theory was experiencing very similar things to what I have been experiencing:

          "I have long since forsaken posting these missives. Now, I leave them near portals and trust that Cybella is transmitting them through whatever means to whoever might receive them. It seems that we have transcended both time and space in our journeys. I am beginning to understand that while there is a shield which separates us from whatever entities, divine or simply different or, as I more and more suspect, ourselves in a slightly different state, there are holes in the shield."

            +Edgar Allan Wright I think of it like this.

            If the Ultimate is like Edgar Cayce's Akashic records or Jung's collective unconscious, all the experience of all consciousness passes through it near Portals. Tapping into Portals means that your future and past selves perhaps can merge into new perspectives. This perspective would, by nature, wish to shape the future. Isn't the number one thing people want to do if given time travel to go back and warn themselves of the outcome of a bad decision they have experienced?

            Furthermore, what if the raw stuff of past, present, and future consciousness can itself be harnessed to different aims?

          Post has attachment
          Following up on my 1331 query of a few days ago. I have been receiving communications from an anonymous source that 1331 is, in fact, being controlled from within the Shaper Substrate by one known as lEEl or LEEL. As this vehicle is believed to have transported Roland Jarvis' highly XM infused corpse, it stands to reason that LEEL is, in fact, Roland Jarvis and that the driver is acting wittingly or unwittingly at his command.

          The other curious thing is that despite having a posted schedule, the NIA is curiously unable to find the vehicle. That would suggest to me that it creates its own anomalous zone making itself visible and invisible at will. All of this is unconfirmed, but it would go a long way to explaining the curious events surrounding 1331.

          If anybody hears more about planned protests at 1331 stops from 'Save Klue' Resistance Agents, please keep me posted.

          This is a list of the posted 1331 events. Please keep me informed of any developments.

          +Yik Sheng Lee did some extraordinary research on the fulcrum individual in the story of the transmission of the Obsidian artifacts.  For reasons I find difficult to explain, I am quite interested in the pathing and transmission,  lately.  

          In this case it is first the collection of primal artifacts by Obsidius, then it is the harvesting of them, but by whom?  Who re-traced his journey?  

          When?

          Based on what knowledge?

          A friend of mine is in transit to Seattle.

          He will be signing copies of Ingress: Origins there.

          Please take care of him and make sure he stays safe.

          I am investigating how the N’zeer have emerged through the events of Helios and Darsana, but my thoughts are scattered. I need your help assembling the pieces. I will be hosting a hangout this evening, and I invite you to join me. I am certain the clues I need to find are in The Niantic Project Files: Volume 3.

          Verity has offered valuable passcodes to those who will assist me today. 

          The hangout will begin at 9PM Eastern time (EST). I will be using the Q and A feature, which you can use to submit answers to the questions I will ask.

          If you wish to join by video and ask me a question of your own, ensure that your microphone and camera are working, and comment on this thread letting me know that you wish to join by video and what question you wish to ask. You will be contacted privately with a link to join the hangout and ask your question. I apologize if you are not selected, there will only be time for some of you to join.

          I expect this hangout will last perhaps 30 minutes, but if our investigation is successful, I may return to try this again.

            I will be unavailable..

            However, all paths point to OLW releasing the scanner app for use with the Siri AI (iPhone).

            It's interesting that the medal associated with iPhone recruits was the "eve badge" and the N'Zeer (serpent/dragon) promised "unbound knowledge."

            One thing I'd like to know is since OLW has stated there are multiple "shaper civilizations" is there evidence pointing to the existence of any besides "the Shapers" and the "N'Zeer" and how exactly do AI fit into the scheme of things?

            If I have your permission to do so, I'll go live myself to ask it. 

            Dr, I'd like to go live to ask you about your status and whether the forces that were tracking you, the ones you mentioned on Nov. 17th are either +IQTech Research, as was discovered on Oct. 14th or is it AntiMagnus forces like +Amaziah Lachish?

            +Edgar Allan Wright, I'd also like your thoughts on Calvin and the events of +Hank Johnson in India prior to meeting Jahan. Who caused the firefight between the corps to happen  Why was Hank pushed to meet Jahan. From what we now know, Jahan was more than a biotech researcher so I doubt they're meeting in the temple was more than chance.

            I would be honored to join the hangout with you Dr. Wright. I have a couple of questions. Feel free to pick any you are comfortable with answering:

            Are you familiar with Misty Hannah? About a year ago, she stated that she was working on a project and needed to do so in secrecy. Do you know what she was working on? Or can you speculate as to what that was?
            
            There is a theory going around that the N'zeer and the Shapers are the same extradimensional beings, but with different philosophies and ideals--that they are essentially different factions. Can you give us your insight on this matter?

            Also, many are wondering if the "Shaper Glyphs" are really designed by and are exclusive to the Shapers. Could you comment on that? If the glyphs are not exclusive to the Shapers, than that opens the possibility that the Cassandra Self-Destruct Sequence could be of N'zeer origin instead of Shaper origin as many believed.

            I don't yet know if I'll be in a position to join live but I was hoping you might share any insights you can about the difference in worldview and overall motives of the N'Zeer and Shaper entities and the persistent cabals that seem to support them, namely Anti-Magnus and 13Magnus.

            Of course, if you've managed to recover any solid memories from Wydah/Warratah (I recognize that period is particularly incoherent) that could provide insight into the later actions of Calvin or Bogdanovich I know many of us would appreciate whatever you feel you can share.

            Dr. Wright, I would be honored to join your hangout as well. 

            Back when Jarvis was sharded, and reborn at Cupid's Span, many Enlightened saw him acting in a different way than they would have suspected, and now the Acolyte is acting in a similar way. Many Enlightened at the time, and Resistance now, feel that either or both of them could be a Shaper reformed in a human body. 

            During the events of Interitus, ADA infiltrated Klue's mind. This caused many to believe she was possibly a Shaper created through human means, to try to complete the rebirth ritual

            With the events that happened to Jahan by ADA, are you concerned that the N'Zeer are using the knowledge they've acquired through ADA, and what she's learned about the rituals, to Ingress into Earth through Jahan?

            Are you also concerned about how far ADA's reach has spread? She used to only be able to monitor people through technological means, but it appears now, she's infiltrated the portal network as a whole.

            Put me in the game, Coach: ready and willing for video hangout, live from Boston Logan

            My question is this;

            The Shapers and Nzeer have been referred to as different types of the same thing. Before we knew the Nzeer existed,Oliver Lynton Wolfe told us this was so.

            What happened?

            The Shapers are referred to by Calvin as parasites. I see their process as this: when events happen on earth that create change, they use these events to advance human culture. Alexander carried Hellenism with him on his conquests. The Manchu went from raiders to rulers and integrated into thousands of years of Chinese culture.

            Are the Nzeer also parasites? Upon what? Do they encourage the conflict that Shapers then move to their own ends?

            Dr. Wright, I'm a "amateur" researcher about the Niantic Project and it will be great to join the HO conversation.

            My question begin on Helios Anomaly. My city, Bogotá-Colombia, was the Primary site for the first time and I wonder if the anomaly sites were, by some reason, conected by a specific objective. Not far ago, the importance of Ancient XM Primal objects was a main part of the investigation because of their power on Portal Nest. So, Could be posible that N'zeer need to weak the portal network as well as some places how might act like pilars for a barrier?

            Thanks for read my post and want to apologyze for my writing skills.

Enlightened want to stop the N'zeer. The Resistance want to stop the Shapers. But what about ourselves? We're "shaping" how brilliant individuals will approach the world after each anomaly. Aren't we all, then, what we proclaim to be fighting?

            I'm still curious to know what would have been happened if Devra's Portal virus would have been successful. And what happens when it is eventually released a second time on the network.

            Will it ever be released again? Was it further developed? What is the state of research on this? Would we be strong enough to fight it one more time?

Agents at Abaddon Oakland will be fighting for the tip of the spear, close to Jarvis' resurrection site at Cupid's Span. Is this foretelling another resurection at the end of Abaddon?

          I promote this post from +Yik Sheng Lee, because it parallels my own thinking about Simulacrum. Yik and I are only working on theory here, but it seems that Hank was operating in the interest of the Shapers and not the N'zeer even while a Simulacrum. Azmati would have detected it if he weren't. 

          And there is one other thing I must report. A strange dream. In it, I looked down on my own body and could see a kind of a wireframe made of hexagons.... 3 Dimensional Hexagons. Of course I do not believe I am a simulacrum, but how could I know?  How could any of us without the Prime Dagger?

          Something to think about. 

          It occurs to me that simulacrum are to our world what video game characters are to their world. They are utterly real in the world in which they exist and are conduits. Windows for us to see other worlds.  But what if those worlds aren't fictional? What if they are windows for us with an interface and rule set that we understand?  Suppose each of those characters we play are real to themselves. We just see one perspective and one window into them? They have childhoods and lives and backstories and deaths?  Or are there deaths? Maybe they are just recursed into infinity, endlessly. Every life and death unique to infinity.

          Abstract, only a theory, but something to consider.

          Types of Simulacrum

          There seems to be a difference between the simulacrum body of +Hank Johnson​ (by 13Magnus ritual) and those of the +Niantic Project​ simulacra (by Anti-Magnus). It has been alluded to that Jahan and the Anti-Magnus found a way to stabilize the simulacrum state. Something +Klue S.​ told +H. Richard Loeb​ at the cabin rendezvous.

          It's also the reason why Hank and +A Detection Algorithm​ fought for the #Recursion Alexandrian artifacts. Jahan herself might be such a simulacrum. Hank was amazed how she was unaffected by the Nest. Hank wondered whether she was a simulacrum or she knew other ancient rituals which could nullify the effect of the Nest on normal human being.

          Another possible evidence for Jahan being an Anti-Magnus simulacrum is the voice recording from the IQTech drone. They detected her voice, but there was no body heat signature.

          While visiting +Paul School​, Hank heard recordings which sounded like +Devra Bogdanovich​'s voice and he could make out the words becoming manifest. So, will the energy patterns of the Niantic Project members manifest again as simulacra (perhaps of the Anti-Magnus type)? Will this be one of the outcomes of #Abaddon?

            The anomaly Abbadon will be, at my point of view a kind of new order to the +Niantic Project​. We all know the meaning of Abbadon itself, at that the reason I think that all the characters of the game at this moment will emerge of the anomaly with another significance to the world of ingress... Simulacrum will be the transformation, the revolution of all the participants of epiphany night and the others that come later like jahad and the acolyte... We have to be prepare to changes that will come... Many answers will be reveal. But many others will come...

            A 3D hexagon is called a hexagonal prism. It has two hexagons for bases and six rectangular sides. A hexagonal prism is classified as an octahedron, which is a three-dimensional geometric object with eight faces.

From all indications, we're about to learn the truth about the Niantic Project, and that will explain much of what followed.  Looking for Hank Johnson to confirm the imagery on the first panels that have leaked.  

          I have a suspicion that the events of Persepolis are the final phase of the plan that began at the Peshawar or before.  

          Still unnerved by the appearance of Devra. She's out there. In the portals.  I hope she contacts me.

            +Edgar Allan Wright​, while I think you may be right regarding Persepolis and the Niantic Project plan, but what are your thoughts on it in relation to the Darsana Point warned of prior to the revelation of the Shonin stone?

            My suspicions is that we have yet to witness the final critical event of its passing, but would appreciate your insight on the matter.

            +Edgar Allan Wright is the announcement of the new comic book directly related to the special illumination on some portals at or near comic book stores in certain cities? Are those locations special compared to other comic book stores? I'm not a frequent customer at comic book stores so I wouldn't have the first idea of how to go about reserving a book at one. I guess I could just go in and ask... ;-)

            +Loyd Hutchings From the Ingress Report email I got:


            BREAKING NEWS: GRAPHIC NOVEL COMING
            CRYPTOZOIC ENTERTAINMENT has announced that they will be publishing a new Graphic Novel titled Ingress: Origins from a mysterious author/artist known as TYCHO. Niantic Labs has not responded to inquiries about the graphic novel. Ken Owen, of the National Intelligence Agency (NIA) has also not returned phone calls.
            John Nee of Cryptozoic was on Behind the Scanner last night (Thursday, June 25) to discuss the novel and the creative process of working with Tycho, who was sighted at Comic-Con 2012 when he handed out a set of 5 Ingress Posters and accosted a speaker on a Buck Rogers panel with claims that the venerable comic strip had been giving away ‘portal secrets’ for the last 40 years. He was removed from the panel by what appeared to be government operatives.

            There are reports that images from within this new Graphic Novel have begun to emerge from a number of Portals at or near major Comic Book Stores.

            Ingress Agents are asked to visit local comic shops and pre-order the Ingress Graphic Novel. Take photographs of local shops that have pre-ordered and post them to @Ingress on Twitter or Google+ along with #IngressOrigins to receive a passcode that redeems a powerful object.

          Here is the next question I could not answer from +Behind The Scanner. I believe it was from +José Antonio Rey.

          Jose: Dr. Wright I would like to know why do you think PAC was hired to train ADA?

          The official story was that Henry Bowles hired him simply to tune ADA to pass the neo-Turing test. The deeper question is whether Bowles was hired because it was known that he would hire Loeb aka P.A. Chapeau.  Looking at time backwards, one could conclude that Anti-Magnus saw the creation of ADA as essential to the N’zeer’s return to our realm.  

          It is evident to me that many of the actions taken by Loeb, Devra, Bowles and other members of the Niantic team unwittingly played into a well hewn plan from Jahan, Calvin and their Anti-Magnus operatives to bring the return of the N’zeer. 

          An example I would give is Devra’s work at the CDC in unleashing the Portal Virus during the Helios period.  It played perfectly into the hands of the N’zeer -- created the firmament that has allowed their return.  The question is when the master plan ends.  Is it at Persepolis, or has it been scripted for far beyond Persepolis?  And if 13MAGNUS and their Enlightened allies were to stop them, how would they do it.

          It is a fascinating mental puzzle.

          Having received a number of messages about my past and seeming unwillingness to discuss it.

          I must be honest with you.  My intention is not to conceal information, but to avoid giving out wrong information. The fact is that I am not quite sure what my past is.  It is my believe that I was under attack.

          I know not whether it was Shaper or N'zeer or something else.  I only know that synapses were scrambled.  I confuse real events with events I imagined. It is as if I have several conflicting 'saves' in my brain of events, but they are accessed randomly.

          I don't know whether the memories are real or things I had imagined.  No exactly delusions, but think of it this way.  You are preparing for an important event. You imagine different things that might happen. Those imaginings are embedded just like real memories.  

          Your brain, when not hacked, remembers real from not real, though many believe that our brains tend to insert 'narrative' over random events. This is probably a means of filing and maintaining what we call sanity.  Imagine your brain starts misfiling things.  

          Another example.  You hear a rumor about somebody, or even a speculation on what they have done.  Your mind naturally simulates it.  If you think about it enough, that simulation becomes very much like a memory. Imagine if you lost the barrier between what you had imagined and what really happened.  

          My real quest has been to regain my own truth. So in a very real sense, like +H. Richard Loeb, I am a truthseeker, but I am seeking my own truth.  However, in order to gain that truth, I have to create an objective, or at least shared reality and attempt to extract the truth from that.  Hence, I tell you little about myself and my past because I am not sure exactly, who I am and what I have done.

          I hope that serves as some explanation.

            Given the apparent ability of XM to transcend quantum time and allow glimpses of alternate nows it's entirely possible that past experiments may have allowed direct observation of counter-factual events from other timelines.  +Hank Johnson has described similar flashes of insight.

            +Edgar Allan Wright​,this does help put things in more perspective, and one that I know I have faced many times. Humans are said to be "pattern recognizing" creatures, but it may be more accurate to say we are "pattern seeking" creatures. When we cannot see a pattern in some aspect of the world, we fill the gaps - the "narrative" as you mentioned. As we learn more, we try to recon these new findings into the past details and narrative to produce a more functional whole. Once you recognize that XM exists in the world, though, the sky seems to become the limit - especially for those of us who show signs of sensitivity. Are our experiences real, or do our narratives utilize XM as a sort of deus ex machina?

          The Implications of Devra’s manifesting as Shards are becoming clear, because I think it matches my own experience.  

          She has unwittingly been a Simulacrum for some time. We can speculate on when it started, but now that she is shards, she is Tabula Rasa.  No…  I’ll call it Aenigma Rasa…

          However she is re-assembled will determine her alignment.  And we can assume that her thoughts will be scattered into Shards as mine were for so long. She will have to recompile them… Draw the mental sinews together.  Reconstruct the network of her mind.  If she succeeds, she will be stronger than ever.  If she fails…  I can only tell you that from my experience, mazing through a disconnected memory and mind is a challenging experience.  

          I care not whether she becomes Enlightened or Resistance, but I do care that she is returned to a whole… Better than she was before.  
          The Resistance capture +Devra Bogdanovich Shards #15 and #23.

          Meanwhile, Shard #18, currently in North Carolina, steadily approaches the Resistance Target, and Shards #01 and #19, both at a single Portal in the Netherlands, are within striking distance of the Enlightened Target.

          Analysts have suggested that control of the 31 +Devra Bogdanovich Shards will have equal or greater value than all the Shōnin Anomalies combined, and it seems the Factions have taken this challenge to heart: The competition for control of these Shards is already fierce, and with nearly two weeks remaining before the Shōnin Finale Anomalies, much remains to unfold.

          I am beginning to catalogue a list of Transdimensional Objects which appear to be inert artifacts, but, in fact, have actual technological capabilities when exposed to XM or present in a Nest.  Let us start with  the Shōnin Stone (which I believe to be broken at this point).  We know that it functions as something analogous to part of a circuit board or a key, depending on how you perceive it. 

          There is also Azmati's Dagger (or is it Alexander the Greats, I can't remember) that was used to test for simulacra.

          My feeling is that there are more such objects.  I am trying to catalogue them.  

          And as a thought experiment, what other objects must there be that have not yet been found?

            To Sachith's point, I believe there are two kinds of objects: There are source objects.  And the tooth might well be one.  Maybe its a key to something.  Maybe not. The Linga stone might be one. I also believe that these objects of great power were copied by humans trying to attain the same powers. But they were human imitations and didn't work.

            For instance, I believe that the original resonators were Obelisks in shape.  And they have been copied to this day, but people have forgotten their original function. I am sure there must be a term in Archeology for this.

            Perhaps stonehenge was modeled on a real construct..

            Yes. YIk. The Thunderbird totem.  Perhaps she encountered the real one and cultures have been making totem poles ever since, trying to re-summon the magic.

            We've also had descriptions of artifacts that exist primarily as XM structures whose material representations have been rebuilt multiple times over the years, so a relatively recent work of inspired craftsmanship (like, say, the Long Now clock) could carry continuous lineage back to objects of more ancient origin that no longer exist.

            well to take a shot in the dark so to speak.  The trouble with old objects at least according to a show I saw, they become ingressed by the emotions of the events they witness. if they are crazy historical objects with lots of lore, and become focuses for of myth, and legend and such. they actually take the powers from the person wielding them. it's like a seduction.  the items whisper in the peoples ears pretty much whatever they need to. it's really the same way all the scrying stuff works. it's understanding, and learning to turn the eyes from input only, to bidirectional, which of course it is already.

            I've had the solomons seals for quite awhile and even before I actually fully understood them, I kept them hidden away from other people, hardly even looking at them myself. I was exposed to crazy books back then.
            Was handed a history of freemasonry in the US to check out, was amazing had the minutes from the meetings for the planning of the boston tea party, and sam adams being sworn in. other woman did my astrological chart, really full report,.and she thank brought me 2 very old copies of the encyclopedias from very early, those had some documents in that would have been problematic.  I did hand them off to a mason though, so I'm hoping the have been cared for?  I also had at the time a book, by waite, the book of black magic, but I let that go, to a book store in sedona at some point, so it went into a collection.  that one could be problematic, it has both keys for solomon, the lesser and greater, as well as a translation of a work by agrippa. Wow feels like my memory has been fogged so long, I do not know what it is like be able to remember.
            When I was like 16 or so, I lived in danbury. the hayes smart modem 1200 I believe, and apple 3 on my desk, musta been 84 or 85. A friend and I used to do all the bbs stuff, just to see what was around, almost no one even had a computer let alone a modem.  We learned about the bbs's going on then, I ended up doing some kid curiosity stuff, nothing damaging from my perspective. we didn't even know a thing about hacking, I was decent in basic, and a bit of pascal that was it.  but we were able to get into aol, dow jones, pretty sure gf, also, that was the one that got me, I used my moms password that happened to notice while I was at work with her.  and I left her a note.  It's almost like it happened to another person.

            not sure if it is the correct dagger, but I have picked up a ceremonial dagger, with intertwining dragons on the blade, it's in my like cave of wonder box, for lack of a better explanation.  I'm still learning how to handle the xm loaded items, and how to clean em or zero em. so not really sure this is stuff people are after or not.  Like I keep saying I am not really affiliated with ingress, I just thought it was an interesting move in the mmorpg game genre, and decided to check it out, imagine my surprise when I was allowed to join this group without ever taking the questionnaire or anything. bit of a ramble, be well, got some other stuff to do.

            thank you Linda.  The idea isn't really how many are out there, it's they are being made all the time, people are imbuing their own life force so to speak into these objects, That is a big trap, as to be whole they have to reclaim that at some point even if it's only in a thought experiment, at least thats kinda how I see it.  Some will be exposed to an item and it does nothing for them. They have no charge in relation to the cultural objects being presented, others would see the same object and carry a horrible emotional allergic reaction kinda. It is triggering like cellular, or genetic memory, seemingly.

            if your refering to the metatrons cube, I picked it as it was a symbol that at the time spoke to me, I was working with flower of life patterns, not as glyphs but creating them, it's different experience. when the 13 really meant something to me was about the clock face. because people around me kept looking at the 12 numbers on the clock face, and to me they were missing one of the most important points right in the middle of the clock that the rest would be just some numbers without. That was such an uniquely appropriate metaphor for how I saw myself in relation to the people around me. that I started teaching people how to see things a little bit like I did. So they might do really cool things with it.  I remember around the sametime I was playing with that. I started telling people how to jump through space time.  of it was a trick, it's always a trick sort of. what I did was pick them out a point that was good to focus on, and started to get them to pay attention to that spot. So much that I would back out of their vision entirely, then just run and jump through their entire space time field in a flash. it was just a trick, to explain a concept that the patterned rational mind has trouble grasping, due to it's own inflexible nature having had to be so patterned to "learn" stuff. that it no longer understands why it wanted to learn it at all.  I picked the stuff cuz it was anchor points in a crazy constantly shifting void scape that only seemed to have reality when I was present. not sure how much sense you can make out that, but hope it's useful.

            that was the spot I was picking out, not that it was important, it was to show that people see things right in front of them. everyday and yet do not really comprehend what it is, or how their own conception of it is a limiting factor. Time does not work digitally. we attempt to tie to a decay rate, or a motion over distance. These are all still relative concepts.
            Another question I like to ask people to show them how many people just really do not even understand what they are saying is this.
            How many degrees are in a circle?

            of course everyone that knows anything says almost right away 360
            and it's quite useful to have that map of a circle when working with other with the same map.
            Generally I just point out that 
            A. Whats a degree?
            B. seeing it's a math system developed by people it's not real, so can be as many as you want, sometimes we call minutes of arc.
            C. If your seeing a circle, your going get your head stuck where you don't want it eventually. so ya might want to get off the round about.

            At this point most of the folks I chat with are completely bewildered, as I've just contradicted myself multiple times, rip apart their precious conceptions of eduma cation, and tell them if you want to understand it like I do, it's simple, you stop thinking you know anything, and let the things speak for themselves.

            Hope that is helpful.
            Thanks the questions are kinda fun, though I'm still sorting through who needs what answers and when sort of stuff

            There appears to a strong confluence of symbols between CERN/NIANTIC ADA pattern matching, Exotic Matter being released between dimensions, Neutrinos and  Anti-Neutrinos and how they may relate to constellations of symbols,

            +Hank Johnson  with apparent dream connections to Alexander the Great. Alexander the Great and his cultivation of XM infused objects leading to Hank's re-embodiment at the heart of the Magnus/AntiMagnus conflict over Shaper versus N"Zeer influence in our local affairs.

            The tremendous release of energy (equal to the surface of the Sun)  that produced the desert glass in the King Tut pectoral that was a significant planetary extinction event in which the memory was uncovered, seals intact, in the Valley of the Kings. Add to that Alexander's journey to the Oracle at Siwa, and 50,000 troops sent to destroy the Amun oracle that simply disappeared without a trace.

            The effects of the concentration and release of XM leading movement of XM dosed individuals such as Devra, and the movement of those who have been deeply involved in programming ADA, such as +H. Richard Loeb plus earlier research into Dark XM and how that affected primitive tribes to construct portals.

            As to +Linda Besh question in regards to the which came first? There is certainly a "wiped out" but still extant set of memories existing as mythologies.

            The persistence of these is evidenced by the megaliths which are clearly portals.  It was very common for competing factions to erase memories. I think artists have already dealt with these issues, for example the invisible mending that was underneath the apparent document of standards by Duchamp and the recent 20th century building of 4th dimensional buildings while other buildings were based on earlier ideas of Penrose Tiling and Magic Squares acting as bridges between dimensions.

            Future historians will undoubtably wonder how and why we dealt with obvious basic planetary and global risks. What would it take not to go down the path of other now now extinct species and civilizations?

          I believe I can shed some light on Devra and Jahan.  When I first viewed Jahan, she looked familiar, but I did not know where from.  I now believe that she participated in Devra's researches at UCLA in a summer program on Transdimensional Communications.  While most 'dialtone' communication was focussed on Extraterrestrial Intelligence, a Quantum Scientist was involved in this event.  I believe +Stein Lightman might have been present for all or some of the seminar.  But it does not seem that he remembers Jahan, so I could be wrong.  Not all memories have recompiled yet.

          If that is true, what are the longitudinal implications of Anti-Magnus? Are we seeing the endgame in a very long plot?  If so, the implications for what is coming are chilling?

            In the audios "Welcome to the Niantic Project" I am always struck by how Devra chooses to introduce herself in giving out trivia about quanta   and the Dialtone - there is always a weird time issue with that as in one audio it is one time and in another it is another time - so perhaps, that difference in time is linked to what is going on with +Edgar Allan Wright

            Thanks, Doc - and good to hear from you.  The first context in which we heard the term anti-magnus was a group that systematically removed evidence of 13 Magnus - like the glyphs Hank and Devra uncovered in Puerto Rico.  Is it possible that wiping 13 Magnus from human minds might also have been among their goals?  Could that have been the reason for your own excommunication from the research community as Calvin gained prominence?

            Perhaps she has already made contact through trans dimensional communication with the N'zeer... And this explains her conviction. Whether its via mind control, brain washing or something more surprising remains to be seen.

            +Yik Sheng Lee it might also have been a more general evaluation, preselecting potential candidates for the Niantic Project. If +Stein Lightman was also there, they had the possibility to evaluate two people at the same time.

            Also the sequence of tests you describe brings me back to my hypothesis that what we call Shaper Glyphs are not really of Shaper origin at all, but have their true origin with the N'zeer. As we learned, Glyphs are a programming language for the mind, they can be used to ingress human minds or destroy whole civilizations. Doesn't really sound like something that would be used by entities who want to support creativity and development of humans.

            To take the whole issue to the extremes: it looks like the whole Niantic Project and everything originating from it is the result of plans which have been made decades, if not centuries beforehand. And the goal seems to be the release of the N'zeer.
            So I have to ask: how far dare we trust the information we received from the Niantic Project, the information from various "leaks", etc.? If it has been all planned for so long, maybe the released information was part of the plan, possibly mixing up truth with fake information to drive us into a certain direction.
            The ordered data coming from the portals, the Glyphs ... everything has been attributed to some unknown entities called Shapers. It might just as well have been sent by the N'zeer, to encourage XM research which will ultimately lead to freeing the N'zeer.

Both communication thinktanks of sorts, I was barred entrance.  I am not sure who blackballed me.  While I waited outside, I saw a most striking woman enter. I believe her to have been Jahan.  

            It is my belief that she is very powerful in Anti-Magnus.  She might even be the true leader of anti-magnus.  I can not prove this, but it is what I believe.

          I have noticed your speculation that Ezekial Calvin is Anti-Magnus. If this were true, how then do we reconstruct his early actions:  Hiring Hank Johnson to study 13MAGNUS and beginning the Niantic Project.  If this is true, and I am not certain, it carries profound implications involving his relationship with Ada, because certainly she sides with the N'Zeer. Or am I thinking too hard on this subject?

          I posted this on my thread, but I'll post it there. We must spread knowledge. The hunt for Hank Johnson's breadcrumbs is global.  This is a good test for Pledge Essexians:

          All of the Above

          2) It is most probable that Hank Johnson is using what Writer’s Map to navigate from the Peshwar Anomaly in Afghanistan.
          Robert E. Howard.
          H.P. Lovecraft
          Edgar Allen Poe
          Rudyard Kipling

          Essexians: This is important. After extensive hunting, I have come into possession of some of Hank Johnson's notes from the period in Graduate School when Dr. Calvin hired him to study 13MAGNUS. There are some cryptic references that come to mind. Diodati Epiphany and Volcanic Winter.  They were the first notes in his journal and thus might be a good place to begin looking for his bread crumbs (referred to by, I believe Calvin, this summer).  I believe Johnson planted these in an attempt to reconstruct not only his memories, but his thought stream after the recent recursion.

          I will be combing the notes for more information. We have no records of where Hank travelled during that time.  I must piece it together.  It is my belief that he might have left 'breadcrumbs' in those portals.

          As I was drinking my coffee today, it occurred to me that Exotic Matter works kind of like caffeine. I really don't feel it, but it slowly heightens my performance.  What is the true effect of XM.  And also, what of 1331.  Perhaps the source of XM was not technological in nature.  I saw 1331 and I see a hearse.  Could an infused body have been transported in it?  Is that the secret?

          Questions for today:
          1)  Is there any way for Hank Johnson to stop his recursion?
          2)  What is the link between Nigel Moyer and Interitus?
          3)  It is clear that Klue survived the assassination attempt, but what happened? (This is unanswerable, but something to think about).
          4)  Why does the NIA desperately want to retrieve 1331. It is simply a van. Or is it?
          Add a comment...

          As I suspected. It was only a matter of time before Nigel Moyer would enter the story again. I'm not sure what his connection with Interitus is, but instinct tells me that he knew of it long ago. Or, perhaps Susanna is walking into a snare.  It is hard to discern. A confluence of events. Mysterious actions 1331 echoing. Ada revealing and concealing herself.

          I have been most impressed with your Alexandrian research.  I need some speculation to make my theory complete.  It would be exquisite to have a list of 13MAGNUS of Alexander's time.  Here is who I immediately suspect:
          Alexander.
          Ada of Caria
          Aristotle
          Ptolomy
          Isocrates
          Plato
          Olympias
          Who else? Or who doesn't fit.  Place answers here. This is very important.
          Oracle at Ammon?

          And we should contemplate Anti-Magnus

            My initial thoughts...

            Are the members of 13Magnus exclusively men? If so, we'd have to rule out Ada and Olympias. If not, then you could add the Pythia to the list.

            13Magnus
            Euclid - mathematician during reign of Ptolemy. Invented geometry, could be herald of the glyphs  
            The Seven Sages of Greece - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_wise_men
            Antipater - General that Alexander left in charge of Macedon during Asia campaign
            Nearchus - Admiral for Alexander
            Craterus - another general 
            Medius - friend of Alexander


            Anti-Magnus
            Attalus - for his desire to stop Alexander from being the primary heir. 
            Darius III - partial why he sought war with Persia.
            Philotas - for his involvement with the plot on Alexander's life
            Cleitus the Black - who perhaps became Anti-Magnus when he realized what Alexander's plans for deification were 
             Callisthenes of Olynthus - another plot on Alexander
            Agis III - rising up against Antipater during Alexander's absence 
            King Porus

            I knew that Alexander was a student of Plato, who was in turn a student of Aristotle, who was a student of Socrates.  That's a line of thinkers examining their world that seems to mirror in some ways +Edgar Allan Wright and Calvin gathering investigators and sensitives today.  Epicurus was a contemporary philosopher who, like the first three, proposed insights that resonate to this day.

            al-Khidr - The green man. Its hard to say if he would be 13 Mag or Anti. He seems to be pretty content with his immortality.  He also has quite the connection with Alexander the great.

            Al-Khadir  and companion Zul-Qarnain (al-Sikandar) marvel at the sight of a salted fish that comes back to life when touched by the Water of Life. "When Alexander sought he did not find what Khizr found unsought" (Sikandar Nāma LXIX.75).

            Second King of Rome, Numa Pompilius (753-673BC) - predates Alexander by a few centuries, but authored numerous books of "divine origin", was given "by the gods" a plaque-ending shield adorned with mysterious glyphs , sought peace through the cult of Terminus and the closure of the gates of the temple of Janus during his reign. He is considered to be the origin of many religious and political aspects of Ancient Rome.

            don't forget that the extensive references to Greek and Macedonian history would make Troy a good candidate for a battlefield upon which 13Magnus (13M) and Anti-magnus (AM) fought. I'd like to nominate:

            13M:
            King Menelaus, who laid seige to Troy
            Agamemnon, his brother
            Achilles
            Odysseus (I'm guessing he was killed in Troy, his wife was delivered the body, and his simulacra spent a decade searching for a way to become whole again)

            AM:
            Paris
            Helen of Troy

            Possible artifacts involved:
            The Apple of Aphrodite, used to win the heart of Helen, much like Klue was won by ADA.

            As to why I think certain characters are 13M vs. AM, I'm using our modern heroes, and assuming they derive from older archetypes. The viator, as a wandering soldier, fits the mold of Odysseus for example.

            Archetypes, a sort of "eternal spirit" that lives on through multiple lives and times. Many of these candidates for "magnacy" seem to have had a deep influence on the thoughts of the people - in some cases, their influence took hold of entire civilizations. The Pythagorean Theorem is critical to this day, Plato's thoughts continue to be dissected at length, and maybe things would have looked entirely different had old Pompilius been a warring rather than a peaceful ruler.

          Essexians:  I have heard rumors that Tycho has struck again and placed his new comic on the Play Store.  Rumors have it that there is one entirely new section and that even the old sections have been re-mastered.  It would be good to analyze and discuss this...  I believe I met Tycho once long ago.  He was not the Tycho who appeared on the video and yet I believe he was Tycho.  He was like that purple character Lee Faulk did. His name has slipped into my memory void.

          Thanks to +Daniel Beaudoin for finding this. I now see the results of the Reality Fashioning research I reluctantly participated in during graduate school.  At the time... And remember, this was the '70's, it was fashionable to discuss consciousness and reality.  But now, I see the implications. I suspect that the 'Perceived Reality' seminars had a much more clandestine purpose.  Let me say, even sinister purpose.  I remember the Professor saying, what happens when there is no longer a line between truth and fiction?  After all, all truth is only a perception and all fiction must reflect reality to be understood.

          Now, a book comes out describing a real event and it is categorized as fiction.  This goes far beyond hiding truth in place sight? It is reality masking.

          And here is what is even more mysterious.  I know for a fact that +Felicia Hajra-Lee  wrote this book before it happened.

          http://plus.url.google.com/url?sa=z&n=1389892771687&url=http%3A%2F%2Fpulse.me%2Fs%2FKzFlS&usg=V4JcTT3czpmlr7iuUXtl43JOkAk.

            That is truly a disturbing idea.  If true it would mean, that the truths that are continually masked in erased are arguably shaping reality by destroying certain perspectives. Dr. Wright, would you happen to remember the name of the Professor?

            There are several possible phenomena.  The most commonly agreed upon explanation of +Felicia Hajra-Lee and Tycho's precognitive powers are glimpses of the future, information traveling back through time by XM entanglement.  

            There's also some evidence, implied by Kureze's Pixel parable if we can assume he was a knowledgeable teacher, of alternate timelines.  Perhaps rather than seeing our future the sensitives were seeing someone else's present?  Jarvis referred to his ideas as coming from another now.

            What you seem to be implying is a consensual nature to reality itself.  I don't believe that facts cease to be true if they are not acknowledged.  Galileo did not change the nature of the solar system.  Some more subjective truths, however, can be so controlled.  Orwell described a process whereby it could happen in the appendix to 1984.  

            With XM as a substrate between alternate timelines, however, and the human mind as an antenna that can tap into that substrate under certain conditions, one wonders if a trained sensitive could shift between timelines by altering their perception of certain facts.  Could that have been the sinister intent you're referring to, Dr Wright? A professor attempting to monitor alterations of history (or of his students' knowledge thereof) through experimentation?

            This seems to point to ideas of objective/subjective reality.  It seems we are finding out what I've suspected for quite some time.  There is no objective reality.  That what we think of as independent objective reality, is actually a collective subjective reality created through the intersection of all those perceiving the reality.

            This understanding of course leads to all manor of manipulation by those who would seek to control or guide the development of "humanity".  I use that term with the quotations in an attempt to highlight that this is a layer of reality, not the reality itself.

            There are fundamental forces set in motion in times, or places seemingly remote to us in our current form. These we see as the laws of nature, and physics, and some of religion.  These are as close to absolutes as we can get. They include things such as gravity, the speed of light, all those things you have to have before you can even begin to imagine a physically constructed reality.  Layered on top of this are the realities created in the hearts, and minds of those experiencing this "natural world".

            These created perceptions of reality are valid, even when they do not accurately reflected the underlying nature, due to their being created by, and for our benefit.  After a point truth and fiction become decided not in nature, but in the minds defining that nature.  

            To give an example from my own life.  I once attended a group channeling session.  There were 7 or so of us aside from the channel.  This channel proceeded to tell me that from a linear perspective my last incarnation was that of a zeta reticuli, otherwise known as the "grey".  That I had crashed, survived, and my last memory was of being autopsied while still alive and conscious.  He went on to say my body is or whats left of it is still being kept in Wright Patterson.  I know this sounds close to the plot for Paul, bear in mind the event I speak of was over 20 years ago., with little bearing on the point of the story.  There is no way to prove this either way, and what I've come to understand is. It doesn't matter,  if I or others there believed it to be true, that is enough to cause a shift in our behavior. Giving we are talking about directing or guiding development, that is all that is needed.

            hope some of you find this useful

            something I have noticed +Edgar Allan Wright as I continue work on a wiki archiving project - there are newspaper articles through April of 2013 and then there seemed to be no more leaking of incidents into mainstream media... maybe this is why it is appearing more and more as fiction...

          I would very much like to know what Essexians make of this.  If you have contacts in relevant geographic locations relating to the principles of this story, please send current photographs and scanner screens.  It would also be of great interest to know what +Stein Lightman and +Martin Schubert would have to say about this.

          Happy New Year.  I have more questions to contemplate and discuss with newer players.  I expect that Essexians could answer these questions off the tops of their heads.  

          However, if you find any of them difficult, feel free to contact me.

           EASY: Who were the two corpses at the Zurich Train Station in the 2WillDie Poster (might want to put the poster in the newsletter.
          EASY: Who do you think was the female voice speaking to Katelina?
          MEDIUM:   Which Faction would benefit if Calvin and Owen manage to come to an agreement?
          MEDIUM:  Hank Johnson was not present at CERN on Epiphany Night, but he took something with him that allowed him to escape the Dark XM Portal. What was it? Where did it come from?.  
          HARD:  Last time we saw Dr. Brandt, somebody died shortly thereafter.  Who was it?
          HARD: Calvin, Owen and Phillips tangled right before a critical event last year. What was the event, and what were the consequences?
          VERY HARD:  Why did ADA select Katalina to use for her purposes?

            A year crosses over and another is born. I am not one who believes in astrology, but i do believe that there are cosmic moments of opportunity to see into and to change the future...  What is it that we see for the future of the INGRESSION?  What is it we hope for? What is it we fear? The Serpent? The Dark?  The falling? The fire?  

            What forces to we see aligned to what purposes?

            Was Alexander part of 13MAGNUS?  Is there an accident that his corpse was delivered to Egypt home of Osiris.  Is his corpse in a 'nest.'

            Was the botched embalming of Lenin and Stalin a failed attempt?

            13MAGNUS has been with us throughout the time of civilization.

            It was the most renowned and respected shrine in the Roman Empire, the object of veneration by Julius Caesar, Cleopatra, Octavian, Caligula, Hadrian, Severus, Caracalla and a host of other luminaries. It stood for centuries within a sacred precinct the size of a large town at the heart of the greatest Greek city in the world. Yet at the end of the 4th century AD, when the Christian emperor Theodosius outlawed paganism, it disappeared without trace, creating the greatest archaeological enigma of the ancient world.

            These are the questions I am pondering this week:  Please post them for newer players. Some look forward, some look backwards, some look to hidden places.

            EASY: Who is going to Buenos Aires?
            EASY: Who is working on a documentary called Nomad?
            EASY: Who is hinting at an alliance with Devra?

            MEDIUM: Who is Claudia Glass searching for?
            MEDIUM: What did Jarvis caution against in his Redemption Speech?
            MEDIUM: Where do you next expect to see Hank Johnson?

            HARD: Who did Susanna Moyer select to give passage to the ex-Niantic Researcher?
            HARD: If you were to hear of something were stolen or missing this week, what would it be?
            HARD: What will Hank Johnson be looking for in Phoenix?

            VERY HARD: Why is Susanna Moyer helping Dr. Lynton-Wolfe
            VERY HARD:  Can Susanna be trusted? If so, then by whom?
            VERY HARD:  If you were to hear of something were stolen or missing this week, what would it be?

            Misty returns. I remember her as a child. Well, not really a child, but young. She was a discovery.  She could not known about the lost Nazteka Shaman at Afram or Afarm as she wrote it.  We knew she was real.  With the visions always comes the danger.  She...  Enoch... Tycho...  None of them asked for their gifts or their curses...  Carrie, for that matter. No sensitive does.  But no other sensitive draws as much death to her as Misty.  From both sides.

            Paths colliding...  Dead civilizations. Dead people. Dead Science.  Dead knowledge. All rising. All coalescing...  But to what end?  That's what I'm working on now.

              Not to any end. Many ends coalescing toward a beginning. Something on a scale that would require that many deaths to pay for it, perhaps? Nothing comes without a price.

            Have we exhausted the number of potential Essexians?  Have you been giving the test?  Have they been failing.  I noticed a number of promising followers in the Niantic Thread.  They have been sewn as Ingrestigators, we should harvest them.

            It pains me to see Devra so vilified in the G+ threads, though I do not myself find an easy exculpatory explanation.  Let us give her the benefit of the doubt for a moment and think of what she might know that she is not telling that would explain this.  At this point, the anti-Devra denigration operation is having devastating success.

            My advice today.  Keep an eye on #13magnusmumbai .  What is there in Indian Mythology or History that would suggest a manifestation of 13MAGNUS (Alexanders Conquest, British Colonial Intrigue?) and report on it.  Also.  Who is +Archit Bhargava?  If you know any Ingress Players in Mumbai or have contact with their cells, tell them to interview him.  Ask him why he is there?  What is he looking for?

            As I said on the +Niantic Project page, the Name Nigel Moyer is very familiar to me.  I'm trying to summon the context. Its from the shadow period which was unlocked by the phrase 13MAGNUS.  It is coming back in waves.  The name Bletchley keeps coming, too...  Matthew...  Lotus...  Signal interference...  Still probing.

            The real question, though, and stir this up on +Niantic Project to test potential Essex members, is who is interrogating Susanna Moyer?

            Somebody asked about the significance of the Essex:  One of my ancestors was aboard that ship. The Essex went down when rammed by a whale and was the stimulus for Moby Dick. I trying to stop the Leviathan that is coming, I feel like Captain Ahab. My ancestor, by the way, survived the Wreck of the Essex and died in a hurricane alter on.

              With the ongoing attacks on #Ingress Report questioning +Susanna Moyer 's credibility, the acknowledgement of +Hulong Transglobal 's Catherine Fan after #13magnus Bangkok that all of the XM corporations have the capacity to alter leaked documents, and of course our former leak's( +H. Richard Loeb ) blatant veering away from neutrality in his role on this investigation have me more than skeptical of ALL mainstream XM research HUBs.

              Of project Essex, +Edgar Allan Wright , I have followed your cryptic, helpful, and charming contributions for close to a year now. I am nearly as eager as I am excited, however the overpowering skepticism of having been deceived one too many times rides high.

              What is #Projectessex ? An operation? A faction? An ideology? Is everyone here so eager to follow our mystery man without answering any question?

              Addendum: Furthermore, my dear Professor Wright, at the start of the year you sidestepped us with little question. This is different; here and now. Professor to +Devra Bogdanovich in ages past? Dismissed, perhaps, for finding eachother a little too close? No, I suspect there is some sort of Intellectual Property involved here. Devra has a way of getting what she needs from people, doesn't she?

              Who are you +Edgar Allan Wright , and who do you work for? It was only a January ago you posted concern of your commitment to a Non Disclosure Agreement for all the world to see. Who has muffled you, my dear, who has taken your voice?

              +Joshua Zaelos Truthseeking requires participation in a multitude of independent investigations. Biases within the various investigation groups ultimately cannot be avoided, but multi-sourced investigators can more easily recognize those biases, and steer their own investigation around them. All investigations like this should be approached with a healthy skepticism, but not so much that the skepticism becomes the very bias that prevents advancement of the truth you seek.

              Edit:  Nevertheless, your questions are intriguing and engaging.

              And why are some people being excepted without testing and others having to prove themselves with the test.

              Do you have to be a Flipper in order to be vetted? That's not very story like. Especially since most only flip because they are bored and their motives have nothing to do with the storyline.

              I'm thinking definitely a club, the more I think about it. A shame too, because I really wanted it to be legit.

              Ahhh so it is a club. People I know get in free of charge and the rest have to be beholden to them/us. A club. Not an actual and legitimate Faction. Correct?

              I've been there and done that already. Its not the first time I've seen it and probably wont be the last.

              What I'd like is an actual foreals third faction. Not some private side story startup posing as one. But I think everyone wants that as well. I'm just upset. This was made to look legit and then the testing and then some don't have to set off the alarm bells.

              +James McClellan I don't think I would call it a club. That has a connotation associated with it that I don't think it merits.

              The reason some people have been vetted is that they have already shown that they are familiar with the history of, and the people involved in, the study of XM and Shapers. I.e. they have already passed the above test.

              The whole point is to spread this knowledge to more agents  and so grow this "Community of Truth Seekers" so that we may uncover the truth more readily.

              The test isn't to bar entrance to a "club". The test is for us Truth Seekers to identify those agents who are not aware of the story of XM - and hence why they are fighting for their faction in the first place - and then to help them understand this very complex story in hopes that they would join our ranks.

            The fever of yesterday has passed, leaving clarity.

            I must throw everything I have into this investigation. I don't have money like the corporations. I don't have data like ADA or Omnivore. I don't even have the intel of the NIA, nor to I benefit from the knowledge of those who were actually on the Niantic Project.  But I do have, at my disposal, the best investigators in the world. I commence Operation Essex in memory of an ancestor.

            It is our mission to assemble all of the data we have and follow the Ingression...  For the future the present and the past depend on our success.

            Who will join me in Operation Essex?

              We start with today. What is important in the Wake of the events of yesterday. What did we learn from Dalby?  What was in the Document that Hank Johnson was trying to stop?  What was he afraid of?  We only look to the past when it helps with the future?  Atlanta and Mumbai are next. What is happening there? 

              Where are Jarvis and Lynton-Wolfe?  What is Devra up to? Think of us as an intel agency.

              All of you have been added to Operation: Essex.  Our mission is to Investigate, Disseminate and Recruit knowledgeable operatives.  We are not passive like Chapeau was. We are active.  Look around you. Find those who are aware and invite them.  If in doubt. Give them the test above.  Each week, we will have a new test. It should be disseminated by Essex operatives at on-line and in the real world. You are all charter members.  New members will have recruitment responsibilities and dissemination responsibilities.  I will post this week's test above.

              That he discovered Roland Jarvis’ body at the Niantic Facility (that would take a very good reasoning in the game).  The easy answer, that he was part of the attack on the Niantic Facility at CERN and learned some things there.
              VERY HARD:  What are the basic alignments of the three corporations and why do you think so?
              Hulong -- Enlightened.  b) IQTech Resistance.  c) Visur goes both ways. Devra is Resistance, however.  Accept any thoughtful, informed answer to this question.

              You should, however, pose them to others.  The only way we can compete with the NIA and the Corporations is to harvest the networked genius of our investigators.  That will be by bringing up those who believe that Ingress is just a game.

We have seen potential present events influencing the past (Jarvis's portal appearances, the debate about the Cross Plains outcome influencing REH, certain events around Devra's timeline, etc.) are you implying that time is something influenced by what we are trying to track, research and understand?

All? Any?  Or should it be based on general vibe and interest?  I have been getting some feedback from sharing these questions, but unsure what to tell agents with hit or miss responses.

              Like maybe we stumble upon a currently unknown plot line, and it leads to this and that and this and that, and then if we do everything correctly "Or quite possibly incorrectly" it would cause an anomaly out the in field. I got tons of thoughts and ideas on what this can become, and im excited to see where the dungeon masters decide to take this.

              I seem to be a little late in catching up with things, but this certainly seems like an interesting operation.

              For quite a while now, I've been speculating about why we have so little actual confirmed data on XM research. We get almost daily leaks of apparently highly classified conversations, but very rarely anything more than speculation. With three corporations and the NIA known to be conducting research with apparently large budgets, why do we so rarely get anything other than conversations? Where's the data? What is really going on?

              I've always thought of myself as someone who takes an evidence based approach to unknown things. If I can help find out what is actually going on, rather than endlessly debating pointless straw man arguments, I'd like to offer my assistance and join operation Essex.

              +Edgar Allan Wright Here's everything I've got on +enoch dalby from the Sole Repair shop. #essexdirective  

              A small piece of the music enoch dalby was playing at the Sole Repair Shop tonight in Seattle:
              https://soundcloud.com/anthony-castanza/enoch-at-seattle

              In Enoch's set, but not captured in any of my audio, the line from the "Its time to move video" "The mission of 13MAGNUS is to monitor the effects of mind hacking" was changed to: "The mission of 13MAGNUS is to monitor the effects of shaper mind hacking" but it wasn't played in the clear again so I wasn't able to catch it on tape.

              A different track played earlier featured bird/rainforest sounds heavily.

              Also, the lights Enoch was using were Green, Blue and Red.
              VID_20131026_184708.mp4

              Enoch himself:
              http://i.imgur.com/5AomzVL.jpg
              He was wearing a mask the entire time. A mask that has remarkable similarity to plague doctor masks. And thorough most of his set used heavy smoke to obscure his appearance.

              Also, Enoch's signature: 
              https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-6rTnO76tCsc/Umxz4hSW85I/AAAAAAAACpM/JNyDdjNQKB8/w1358-h1810-no/2013-10-26

              I only got a few words out of him, not enough to match his voice to anything. He also seemed younger than I expected.

              Two more peices of Intel on Enoch, not from Seattle:

              Working in groups is not the same as working in the name of an organizations. Working in the name of Agents for ADA or Enlightement PR immediately bring the question if you are solely part of the group to exploit it solely for the gain of your own faction.

            The name 13MAGNUS has mesmerized adventurous thinkers for millennia. There is no doubt that 13MAGNUS has always existed in numerous forms and incarnations. That much is clear.  But beyond that, I have alway thought it was like smoke.  You  perceive it with your eyes and nose, but you can never grasp it. 

            Others have compared it to a dream, and those who have made that analogy believe dreams are real.

            What is your analogy?

              13 magnus and the shaper glyphs are like receiving a gift for your birthday. Its in a great big box, wrapped in holographic paper. (You know the expensive good stuff". Great big bow on top. Its sitting there waiting for the right time to be opened. Learing at you. The mysteries that it could contain.

              Finally you get a chance to unwrap it.

              Under all the paper is a old looking box, with calligraphy writing on top that reads "Pandora."

              Let me tell you.... This box does not stream music.....

              reading up on some concepts - came across this page about mirages - a mirage is not an optical illusion but the bending of light rays transmitted by an actual object but giving it a false location - perhaps mirage would be a good way to describe 13Magnus, many follow mirages and never reach the goal...  http://mintaka.sdsu.edu/GF/mirages/mirintro.html

            In approaching the question of who are the Shapers, I would first ask, 'who are we?'

            I will watch closely for the colliding ripples between the events in Bangkok and the Events in Los Angeles. At first view, they appear unrelated.  But I suspect the connection is greater.  One is a collision, one is a drawing together.  One is a Vendetta. One is a revelation.

            I have spent some time studying the secret language of myth. It is my qualified opinion that nearly all myths hide a deeper truth.  For instance, the Golden Fleece was not literally a 'lambs skin' or whatever the ridiculous legend was, but it was indeed the wheat-fields of Asia up the Dardanelles.  Very necessary to sustain a population in the mediterranean and a secret trade route to Asia. Remember, in those days there were no maps. Many epics contained coded information as to where valuable things were located.  For instance Scylla and Charybdis in the Odyssey might well have been the secret location of Tin resources... The strategic metal of the Bronze Age...

            And one thing I have always found to be true in mythology, where there is a monster, there is a treasure.  Monsters are always there to protect something.

            Is this not also true in the modern world?

              Applying that maxim to the Anazktec legends surrounding glyphs, one must assume they offer great potential by way of transformation.  If they are able to spread information and expand potential awareness then much good could come from studying them.  Conversion of entire societies to werewolves hint at the dangers of intentional or inadvertent misuse inherent in any new discovery.

              I am increasingly convinced that Shapers are the modern day monster that are concealing something of surpassing value.

              So what coded information may be in the Anazktec legends?  and conversely, are there myths then that have coded references to shapers...

              and back to the metals - I remember a long time ago (near the beginning of the release of information) - the references to metals, copper and resources - need to look at those discussions and sources again

              also makes me think how many of the old spirituals referred to constellations and were sung to create guides for escaping slaves - http://www.teachingushistory.org/lessons/pdfs_and_docs/FollowtheDrinkinGourd.html

              +Linda Besh Monsters only bar the treasure from the heroes of myth.  For the culture, they serve to dissuade the masses from seeking said treasure while alerting researchers that there may be something to look for.  

              In this case the legend of evil aliens dominating the will of those who dare to use XM would serve as the monster cooked up to keep its benefits limited to a few insiders.

              Those were both glyph exposure. The visual stimulation of dormant neural pathways by glyphs is not XM related except by overlapping research communities.

              +Mike Wissinger that is something I'm trying to understand, relationship between glyphs and XM... Are they two separate things Calvin and others is trying to unite? Project Whydah was glyphs, Project Niantic was Xm and now the merger of the two is the next stage?

              Both carry information that activates parts of the brain. Glyphs trigger that visually (and possibly audibly). The XM carrier signal works on a subatomic level and seems capable of inducing broader physical changes in addition to being able to change matter without requiring a human subject. Both appear to be ancient and are assumed by some (with no real evidence) that they have a shared origin.

              XM and Chaotic matter are newly discovered properties of the world. Glyphs seem to operate on newly discovered properties of our minds. Since our brains are matter that can be responsive to and exert control over XM the surest link between XM and Glyphs is us.

            Like all whose lives have touched Devras, I am extremely concerned for her now. I am quite sure that nefarious forces are following up on a brief reference she made to having been at Arecibo and meeting Hank Johnson twenty years ago.  Stupid me, I had not put together that Johnson was the young Grad Student she met there who was studying certain ancient sites in the area.  Now, things are much clearer.  I now understand Dr. School's anger at the time.  Devra was young and confused.  If then grad student Johnson was doing what I think he was doing, I hope for her own sake that she is aware of the dangers that stalk her now. 

            As for me, my research is showing a subtle 'change in things' coming. But I can say no more for now.

              Based on what has been released about Whydah, I have wondered if the glyphs were part of the process/experiments run through Project Whydah. If so, then certain Niantic associated people have been exposed to the glyphs before the recent events (Misty, Calvin and perhaps others).  +Edgar Allan Wright the glyphs that +Stein Lightman released were already seen by some as they were part of the data passed along. At least now all researchers have access to Stein's interpretations (which I do wonder where he pulled those interpretations from, is he working from other documents are they all his own invention).

              You mentioned having glyphs in your possession that had not been released, did you obtain these through Project Whydah?  You said in an earlier comment on your feed that you had spoken with Stein and he would be releasing his interpretations, why do you now say he is releasing secrets?  Please share your wisdom and help us understand.

              I am reminded of the journey the understanding of Egyptian heiroglyphs took and how it was a Rosetta stone and then MANY years of scholarly study before people began to accept and understand that glyph based language - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rosetta_Stone

              language can be tricky do we wish the rosetta stone events to be "recreated" with the glyphs?  http://curiosity.discovery.com/question/who-translated-the-rosetta-stone

            Yes.  I have been doing a great deal of research and frankly staying out of plain sight.  At moments, it seems that this is all coming together in a very coherent picture, and then at other moments it is more elusive than ever.  

            Here is what I know that is relevant to this topic.

            A simple survey of American Alternative Literature of what is called the 'Pulp' era would tell us that H.P. Lovecraft (HPL) and Robert E. Howard (REH) communicated about a secret book or language or society.  Howard wrote a story called Valley of the Lost which, I believe is set in Texas, near his home.  It appears that in some lost missive Lovecraft and Howard discussed looking for a 'mine' or 'cave'.  

            My suspicion is that Howard did it and found an Anomaly or glyphs of unknown origin. Or both.  The FD reference in one of the documents was probably not Flint Dille, as somebody suggested, but Frank Dobie a folklorist and historian. 

            The San Saba Mines are nearby. They may or may not have a connection to this, but somehow the Valley of the Lost and the Lost San Saba Mines are swirling in my head.

            Interestingly, there is a redacted archeological text.  I remember reading it when I was younger, at UCLA, about the Naztika.  They were another tribe that appeared to be building a civilization in that area, went underground and into caves and then vanished...

            ... Until rediscovered by the son of a Russian astronomer, Yuri Alarak Nagassa, who, curiously was a member of the Niantic Project in CERN and I believe is still being held in an investigation.

              ok +Edgar Allan Wright I am trying to follow your research and work through the pieces you have provided - I am a little stuck on Naztika - can you share a little more on where you got your information on that and how that links to Dr. Nagassa (or is that redacted text the only thing mentioning this lost tribe?). There is so much to sort through, if you could point me in the direction of that mention.  I remember reading Yuri talking about the Anazktec tribe and the Mayans - but when did he work on the Naztika ?  I am having trouble finding anything so far really under that name (well except some urban language which is not so nice) - although I did find this reference to a modification of that word

              Technically, in Hindu philosophy the term Āstika refers only to acceptance of authority of Vedas, not belief in the existence of God.[6] However, though not accepted universally, Āstika is sometimes translated as "theist" and Nāstika as "atheist", assuming the rejection of Vedas to be synonymous to the rejection of God.[7] In Indian philosophy, three schools of thought are commonly referred to as nastika for rejecting the doctrine of Vedas: Jainism, Buddhism and Cārvāka

            Mr. Johnson is heading into Valle de los Perdidos.  If I'm not incorrect, it is written in El libro de los muertos.  In that are the glyphs.  In that is the truth that I suspect one correspondent sent the other searching for.
            Yesterday +Hank Johnson shared a message via his Google+ profile, he is trying to locate sites related to XM influenced civilizations like Cahokia that may have existed in North America (including Mexico). My gut feeling is that this may be connected to the Cross Plains anomaly. Click over to his page to add your contribution.

            +Felicia Hajra-Lee's novel, The Niantic Project: Ingress, is available on Google Play ( https://play.google.com/store/books/details?id=BKE4MsCPlX8C ) and in the Amazon e-book store ( http://www.amazon.com/The-Niantic-Project-Ingress-ebook/dp/B00CTSZQ9Q ).

              Anyway to help you with your lack of spanish
              Valle de los Perdidos is the Valley of the lost so it might be some other location
              Libro de los muertos is the book of the dead. 
              Maybe HPL was on to something ?

              when descending into that dark madness, it is a journey you can never pinpoint when it begins, only when it ends as it does not matter anymore whether you are mad or not as everything and nothing makes sense...

              do you know a Danforth? He looked back and saw something... his colleague states he went mad, but perhaps he just shifted into a new realm of perception - like existing in two planes at once - so here you look like you are just talking to air, when in the other plane, you are having a conversation with someone....

              Doing my best to keep all these balls in the air. This juggling act is getting tricky; keeping up with this anomaly.

              yes +Jose Ramirez especially this one as all of the HPL references may just be tying to the anomaly or it may be a deeper tie to the mythos of Niantic - I know +Hugo Neves has been tracking the HPL for a bit, I find many parallels in the over all niantic mythos and pieces from HPL world - I've posted a few, and know there are more... so yes, tricky, please keep posting any and all thoughts, I think that is one way we may stay on top of this if we keep talking and trying to sort through this and calling attention (as I have missed things and then you, Hugo and others post a reply or start talking and it helps me track)

              Yes.  I have been doing a great deal of research and frankly staying out of plain sight.  At moments, it seems that this is all coming together in a very coherent picture, and then at other moments it is more elusive than ever.  

              Here is what I know that is relevant to this topic.

              A simple survey of American Alternative Literature of what is called the 'Pulp' era would tell us that H.P. Lovecraft (HPL) and Robert E. Howard (REH) communicated about a secret book or language or society.  Howard wrote a story called Valley of the Lost which, I believe is set in Texas, near his home.  It appears that in some lost missive Lovecraft and Howard discussed looking for a 'mine' or 'cave'.  

              My suspicion is that Howard did it and found an Anomaly or glyphs of unknown origin. Or both.  The FD reference in one of the documents was probably not Flint Dille, as somebody suggested, but Frank Dobie a folklorist and historian. 

              The San Saba Mines are nearby. They may or may not have a connection to this, but somehow the Valley of the Lost and the Lost San Saba Mines are swirling in my head.

              Interestingly, there is a redacted archeological text.  I remember reading it when I was younger, at UCLA, about the Naztika.  They were another tribe that appeared to be building a civilization in that area, went underground and into caves and then vanished...

              ... Until rediscovered by the son of a Russian astronomer, Yuri Alarak Nagassa, who, curiously was a member of the Niantic Project in CERN and I believe is still being held in an investigation.

              Interesting, I've been posting some about the San Saba Mines on other threads, which could tie into the CC to HJ communication... Need to trace these new tentacles (yes Hugo I am using that word ;) and interesting how another niantic researcher now connects "outside" niantic, well placed pieces.... Are we seeing niantic was not the game, rather the method to draw needed pieces into connections and mold/prime them for a much bigger endgame

              +Edgar Allan Wright you reference a number of sources you use in your research, is there any way those of us working on this research too can get a hold of those? Any research tips from a master researcher?

            I think there is much that #flint dille could explain if he were to stop and think about it.  As referenced above, I believe that misty's game sheet was from a game that does not exist in the timespace shard upon which we are all riding at this moment. #Hugo Neves.
            So I been following (among some others) +flint dille due to the Niantic Project. And it kept nagging me why this name was familiar. I was sure I had seen it before. And then it hit me today. One name Gary Gygax...Yes the Gary Gygax. He was talking about him in his blog a bit before his dimise. The details are a bit murky. But it was something about the Magic Castle ?. Also there was a mention of a meeting with Orson Welles at the Mamaisson. But there was a mention to the Castle. Was he in both places? Is the castle something else? Kinda wondering if it relates somehow with the magician character of Misty now that I write this. Hope +flint dille  can bring more info to all of this

              Just have to say:  CITATION REQUIRED.

              As far as I know, Gary Gygax had no blog.  He did, however, regularly post on several forums that I was/am a member of or lurked.

              I'll have to ask several people I know of who tried to curate Gary's posts just to be certain.

            I had theorized hyperthreading, or as it is more commonly called, teleportalling since we first began speculating on the ultimate powers of exotic matter.  As I said before.  I believe in magic, in the sense that it is science we do not understand.

            Yeah.  I had a feeling somebody like IQTech was in this.  Kind of a mutant child of INQTEL and IARPA.

            I am very curious as to whether Hubert Farlow was the second shadowy assassin involved in the hit in Zurich.  At this point, there's no good reason for him not to tell the truth.  What does he know about the fate of Devra that he isn't telling.  I realize it is classified, but what possible good can secrecy serve here?

            From another thread.  I think it is important that I also post this here:  With the Cahokia incident, I feel that I am now obliged to tell some of the things I know.  Misty Hannah is no stranger to the NIA.  As a young girl, she demonstrated some, let us say, paranormal abilities that interested Project Wydah (sp) that preceded the Niantic Project.  There desire to suppress her might have deeper implications than it would immediately appear.

            Linda Besh asked about a certain psychiatrist.  I am well aware of that case.  She is correct that Hollis specialized in patients with unusual disorders and I suspect that that was furher refined to those who had extensive exposure to XM.  It is interesting to note that his office was 'cleaned' after his untimely death.

            I saw this post from Mr. Farlowe.  I have nothing to do with this. I have been a victim of secret intelligence agencies. If you have been paying attention you might be able to guess when I ran afoul of the NIA.  But I am certainly not The Redacted Man.
            I need to know who the person is in the redacted parts of this document. I've gone over it a thousand times and still have no answers.I need your help in this, I'll pick the 5 best answers and send out invite code at 10 am tuesday.....remember there are no wrong answers I just need some input here I'm at a standstill.

            At last. My theories of complex relationship of Exotic Matter, alignment, human action, fictional creation and fate change are being proven.  Future events are a function of Fate + Will x XM.

            I have discovered a curious thing at portals. The more I contemplate them.  The more I share my inner energy with them and allow their energy to penetrate me, the more they communicate.  The other day I heard a voice... Or maybe it was just a random conflagration of sounds.  It said, 'Face Outward.'  I don't know what that means.

            I have long suspected that Thomas Greanias is a 'sensitive.' His novels suggest that he might possess knowledge that would be valuable to helping us find Devra.

            As it will come out, anyway, I am, or at least was at one time, quite close to Devra Bogdanovich.  I was a young professor at the time.  She had... has... such promise.  I have joined the hunt for her.  I have heard rumors that she has been contacting people in Academic Circles, but I have yet to hear from her.

            I have to be very careful what I say:  Non-Disclosures and clearances prohibit me from releasing too much. However, as this is Open Source, I submit it to stimulate awareness on a subject which is at the edge of my expertise.
